XML Hell! — XML to CSV on a Mac?

Is there a Mac user out there who has a way to convert XML to CSV? I expected it would be simple getting the metadata in my bins out of Premiere, but have had no success. All the search hits show how to import into Excel, but the listed menu choices don't exist on Mac. What?!

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your response! Unfortunately, the notification landed in my junk folder, so wasn't able to use this method which is much simpler than what I finally did. I found a site online that converts formats, and that ended up working okay and was reasonably priced -- conversiontools.io.

You could export an Avid Log Exchange which is basically a TSV (with some extra header bits and bobs) and will import into Excel etc. basically the same as a CSV.
