Save as XML with VBA?
the good ol' macro recorder saved me this time :)) (Why didn't I used it before I posted here?)So...To load an xml schema you have:
ActiveWorkbook.XmlMaps.Add("Book2.xml", "raport").Name _ = "raport_Map"
And to save it as xml:
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAsXMLData Filename:="Book3.xml", _ Map:=ActiveWorkbook.XmlMaps("raport_Map")
Who would have thought that it's that easy?
This link helped me the most -> http://curiousmind.jlion.com/exceltotextfile
