Check the download section of www.universalthread.com. There are some XML
classes there.

The easy answer is "Yes" because there's nothing magic about XML. It's just
text.

If you need to read it as structured data, see XMLtoCursor(), and if that
won't get it start reading the docs for the MSXML parser, or any other
parser that's available.

Hi Dan,

I was looking at the XMLtoCursor(mTet, "C:\MyFile.XML") but it gives error:
xmltocursor.prg does not exist. Do you know where this prg might be, I am
trying to find it myself, is it part of Visual FoxPro 6.0?

Thanks
Marco

XMLtoCursor() is in VFP7.0 or later. Sorry.

Visit www.west-wind.com. He's got a couple of XML-handling classes that
should work for VFP6.

(And now might be a good time to upgrade, since VFP6 is no longer
supported.)

We have VFP 8.0 but our clients has our VFP 6.0 runtime DLL's approved but
they will approve other DLL's like VFP 8 or VFP 7. So I am stuck using VFP
6.0....
