Viewing XML Files

I use Chilkat to make and read XML files. I like the way the program is structured. In this sample you can paste raw unformatted XML – Click XML Formatted will format the XML to a more readable format.  You can also use the same option with JSON Files.

Sample Database Zipped – http://anythingaccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Pretty_XML.zip

Code

Private Sub cmdSingle_Click()
If Nz(Me.Raw, "") = "" Then
    MsgBox "Enter some XML in the Raw section"
    Exit Sub
End If
Me.Formatted = SingleConvert(Me.Raw)

End Sub

Function SingleConvert(tmpRaw)
Dim tmpConvert, xml
    Set xml = CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Xml")
    tmpConvert = xml.loadXML(tmpRaw)
    SingleConvert = xml.GetXml()
End Function
