Hi Vinay,

Sorry, but NO there is not.

However there is a way to get the job done (works only with MS Office/MS Word 2000/XP/2003).

You can save the file simply with the extension .DOC and let MS Word take care of the conversion.

For this MS Word uses a file called XML2WORD.XSL or XML2WORD.XSLT and this will trigger the conversion from an XML file to a reasonable readable format WORD file.

You are able to create your own XSL or XSLT file (but you need the knowledge for that).

See how it works on website http://www.xmlw.ie/aboutxml/xml2word/

Do NOT confuse it with the old XML2WORD tool (used for mail merge, info on website: http://users.skynet.be/saw/xml2word.htm )

Hope this helps you,

Regards,

Rob.
