Hi,
I was wondering if we could start an XML forum so we could share examples of sharing data between Office programs and/or other programs. Office2003 allows XML features but I don't think many people know about it or think it's too complicated to bother with.
For a newbie like me, it does seem complicated, but that's probably because Microsoft didn't explain it very well. For such an advanced feature, one would think they would try to spend more time on it in their help files. In fact, this site explained it better than Microsoft did: http://www.mrexcel.com/tip064.shtml
Anyway, what do you think? Is there any interest in automation with XML? Or is this site specifically for Excel only?
