Xcelsius using XML Data connections

Hi All,
I am facing difficulty in understanding how xml data connections are used in xcelsius.
Please anyone tell me the easiest way to convert excel file into XML code and then, I need to pull connections into the dashboard. Please reply if anyone has any idea on xml data connections and then I will ask few more questions based on your feedback

Thanks
MR

If you search right back in this forum, I posted a really handy link to a web page that takes you step by step into creating a map for your excel spreadsheet and I think I documented everything I did too in creating XML MAP connections. Look for XML MAPS in my posts.

Bit busy right now but I will search it out later if I have time.

If you use [xml data], the excel xml might have to much info in the xml file.
Check your input file with the preview-file you can make.
Stick to and.
Make sure your range name is equel to the variable name.
