Three workarounds to get XML data for Yahoo users:
1) Eric's clever idea: fwd to teammate, have teammate
save w. diff extension (like .gif) then email back,
download attachment & rename /xml.
Brad Brunet's had success just editing in Notepad
and renaming with an .xml extension, but I need to use
method 3.
2)Send to your own dummy account at Hotmail or
elsewhere and download from there.
3) Copy the data and paste it into Word. Use Word to
Replace all paragraph marks (which Yahoo adds) with
nothing. Save as text.
Check you chr names after importing, since Yahoo
deals poorly with accent marks; I need to change
LAndal to Lindal each turn.
All minor hassles but quick once you get used them.
Good luck!
