Is it possible to import XML with master-detail data into Excel 2003?
Hello!
We thinked about it. May it is our target.
But still have no idea, how to allow user to modify template without calling
a programmer.

Hello!
Thank You for Your answer.
Is it possible to customize it? Our report is quite complex.
Here is simple example
----
FooBar001 name
FooBar001 address
Charles name, Charles tel
Charles comment
John name, John tel
john comment
HeyFoo name
HeyFoo address
----
Our main target is to give user ability to customize Excel template and
load
structural data into it.
Now we use our own vba program, that load data into template. But may be
we
can simplify our program (or even throw away :) ) using new XML
capabilities
of Excel? We are using Excel 2000 features currently. May be even 97.
Thank You in advance

Yes, it's possible: the master-detail structure is flattened.
Example: this XML ...
<people
<department
<idFooBar001</id
<employee
<nameCharles</name
<age27</age
</employee
<employee
<nameJohn</name
<age21</age
</employee
</department
<department
<idHeyFoo002</id
<employee
<nameMichel</name
<age29</age
</employee
<employee
<nameHerbert</name
<age32</age
</employee
</department
is rendered like this:
ID NAME AGE
--------- -------- ---
FooBar001 Charles 27
FooBar001 John 21
HeyFoo002 Michael 29
HeyFoo002 Herbert 32
