Hi all,
OK. So much for pdf. Does anyone know if there is any way of turning an XML
into MS Word format? I don't think word is scriptable, is it? VBScript,
perhaps?
Just wondering.
Sorry. The very thought is rather distastefull , isn't it. But who knows.
See. Just for fun I did my resume in pdf

I'ts not unreasonable at all. You can convert your XML to RTF, which
Word will display. You won't have access to all the 7,562,443 features
