ok please disregard this note, somehow after fiddling around with this and
that, not sure what i did, i got that item to appear on the dropdown, if you
might know for sure what i did, i'd still like to know, sound dumb doesn't
it! but sometimes you fix things and don't know what you did!.....duh!

Hello,

In the book Visual Studio Tools for Office, there is an example that uses
the XML Source selection to display the XML Source pane and according to the
book it's supposed to be under the "Data" selection on the top level tool bar:

Data Microsoft Offile Excel Data XML XML Source

but the only list items that drop down are the:

Data
Show Data Sources
Add New Data Source

Do i need to activate the XML selection somehow so it appears under the
Data toolbar item?

Thanks very much
