Default Parsing Text Strings

Hi All,

The following is an example text string that I wish to parse into a set of
separate values in a column in a worksheet, the individual values of each
string are those that appear between the <STATUS and </STATUS markers.
There are potentially 50 strings but once the first empty string is found
there are no more past that point.

TIA
Cheers
Nigel
