Grab bag: Excel and XML, SOURCE, and Cramer
-
Excel will create an XSD from an XML document that doesn’t have one. With a little work you can get the XSD back out again:
“Start the Visual Basic Editor with Alt+F11. In the Visual Basic Editor, hit Ctrl+G to open the immediate pane. In the immediate pane, type:
Print ActiveWorkbook.XmlMaps(1).Schemas(1).Xml”
Genius.

One indispensable feature of this toolbox is the ability to reload a modified schema without having to recreate all your XML mappings. Unfortunately it doesn’t work with Excel 2007.

Jim Cramer and Jon Stewart sit down and do extended fisticuffs. In three parts.
