I know this question does not belong in this group and I already posted it

in an other group but here is the only place I always get answers.I guess I

should explain my problem better I downloaded my product feed from

yahoo but it is not in an Excel form and I am trying to convert it to Excel.

on top of the feed it says the " <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"

?> ". Maybe this has something to do with it?

XML = Extensible Markup Language, now incorporated into

-- WindowsXP operating system (but not Win98)

-- MS Office 2003 (but not earlier versions.)

Yahoo programmers may have assumed everyone now

uses WinXP, which is not yet the case.

Sobolsoft and other sites have the converters, did you check via the search

link I provided?

 

Price range from about 19.00 to 200.00, though I didn't check all the

links, so likely someone has a free or trial/crippled version somewhere.

Re: Data Feed inn Excel Form

 

Office 2003 was the first version to support XML in Excel.

 

One way to get that data into a spreadsheet is to find a viewer that uses

tabs to separate the fields for display -the displayed data then could be

cut and paste into Excel. It would be a matter of experimenting.
