>You were already given some advice, on this. XMLTOCURSOR() can read an XML document and populate a cursor with the data, without previous knowledge of the XML structure, but it is limited if your XML goes too deep, or if the data is stored in attributes as well as in the elements' contents. Marco's great reader can create a VFP object from an XML document, and does not have those limitations - but you won't be able to browse, as you want to,

If the information of the XML document you have in hands is not sensitive, you may upload it here, for inspection.

Thank you, Antonio. The xml file is from customer site but I don't know if it has any sensitive information. I will check and maybe just take a cut from it and upload it.
