MS Word to XML

[anandjk1]

Hi
I need to know the best process to convert an MS Word file to XML format. As far as I know it will be possible in MS Word 2003 by converting the MS Word to XSL and then to XML. Please help in this matter

Well, an XSL file is a stylesheet, which can be used to convert an XML file to another XML file or plain text file. You do not convert a Word document to an XSL file.
You migth save your word document as an XML file, which will then be written in the MS Word XML document format. You can then use an XSL stylesheet to convert this to what ever XML fomat you want.

There are various tools available which are freeware - If you want to make it simple.

You can do it by using XML mapper. This tool is available as a free one. You will have to download it from www.adeptia.com

I have forgot the exact link, from where I downloaded it.

thanks
