XML to excel/datagridview parsing
Hi All,
First of all I would like to thank you for the support. I am new in coding and need assistance in getting a specific xml content to an excel spreadsheet or to a datagridview.
the XML file is not a standard one (i think and below is a sample).
what i need from this xml file is the following data:
the name (Towers xxx] of the alert and the gps points (dont need the utm)
this is the xml
[code]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?>
