Convert excel to XML

[creader]

Hi All, first post so please be gentle.

I need to be able to edit Excel stock sheets, then convert them and email them as XML format attachments. This is for an automatic stock ordering process, the recieving software can fully automate the task if the received email attachement files are XML.

I have Office HD, which claims that it can edit and re-save xml docs, but this is not the case, it can only read them and refuses to save them after any editing.

Numbers is the same.

I'm looking at QuickOffice and Documents to Go, (I have asked the developers and am waiting for a response).

Any ideas if there is an app that will do this??

Any help appreciated,
C

Sounds like you've covered all the apps I would have suggested! Good luck though, it should be possible I'm sure!

Yes, you would think that it would be achievable, apparently QuickOffice does not support XML.

still waiting for a response on Docs to Go.. or any other suggestions??

I may have to use Dropbox. Install on the iPad and a P.C machine. Then copy the excel docs to the cloud share point, run an automated script on the P.C/Dropbox/Completed Orders folder/items to convert and then email off.

Seems a huge task though, an App to convert would save a lot of pain..

could google docs do anything? It's essentially XML anyway
