There is no need to re-invent the wheel. Raymond Camden has published code that converts information from a form to an Excel file. His method first converts information from a form to a query. But you can easily adapt it to your case. If you do not have direct access to the form, you will still be able to convert the XML data into the name-value pairs in the query.
