Default 2003 - Import XML

Hi, I have Excel 2003 (11.8307.8221) SP3

I am using a book to learn more advanced options. The book says I should be
able to point to the Data menu and choose XML in order to import XML files.
I went to the Excel help, which told me the same thing. However, my Data
menu has no XML option. Is there something I have to load?

Thank you.
Karin

Default 2003 - Import XML

XML not included in default menu.

ToolsCustomizeCommandsData.

Scroll down to bottom and you will find some XML commands which you drag up
to Data menu or place on a New Toolbar.

Thank you - however, there is nothing in the list of commands under Data with
XML in the name.

I should have added in my original reply that only MS Office 2003
Professional edition supports XML.

Do you have something else like Student edition?

Help/About says "Standard Edition" - perhaps that is the problem. Bummer,
I'm trying to get an Expert certification and need to learn importing XML
files.

Karin,

a supplier started sending me XML files and I couldn't read them as I
use XL2000. However, with OpenOffice also installed on my PC, I could
use that to open the XML files and then save them as XLS.

Hope this helps.
