File To XML Converter Description

The File To XML Converter application was developed to be a small utility that converts data-files of various formats to .NET DataSet-compatible XML. It reads and converts data-files of various formats like Access databases, Excel spreadsheets, CSV files, tabbed-delimited files, etc., to the standard DataSet-compatible XML format used in .NET. The AnyDataFileToXmlConverter utility is quick and easy to use - just open/load the file in the utility and the file will be automatically processed to the .NET XML format. For Excel spreadsheets, the worksheets in the workbook are enumerated, and a worksheet must be selected for processing to XML. In Microsoft Access databases, a query for the specific data to convert to XML must be specified before processing.Several sample data-files are provided with the utility, which demonstrate the various common data-file formats that can be re-processed to XML. There are additional file-formats that can be processed (like pipe-delimited files), and the class can be easily modified to handle additional formats also. XML files can be loaded into the utility, but no processing is performed since they're already in the end-result format.Also, there is an optional data-cleanup function that automatically removes any "junk" XML-nodes that are commonly created as a result of processing an Excel spreadsheet that contains empty or cleared rows at the end of a spreadsheet. You can also change the output/results display from XML to a grid, for easier viewing and sorting.
