If you can output text, you can output XML.<br>
How do you need to output the XML to make it usable for your next input is a different story.<br>

Thanks for the offer. We could also just chat sometime. <br>
Looks like I will need to take my existing data which is in one or more<br>
data files and output it in some form of XML which I know next to nothing<br>
about. I'll be looking for tools and/or tutorial type stuff on that. <br>

As I said, I was looking over some old C code from my DOS/Windows time<br>
about 25 years ago. I finally found most of what I needed so the main .h<br>
include file will compile without error. It was not as bad as I had<br>
thought. The biggest thing that was confusing me was the plethora of<br>
include files and architecture variations I did not have to deal with back<br>
then. Trying to find where something is typedef'd today is a lot more<br>
complex.<br>
Nevertheless, if I continue this project I may be asking for some<br>
assistance from time to time.<br>
Basically, I wrote a scuba diving "log" program called "Dive-In" back<br>
around 1988 for the same reasons Linus Torvalds did in the last few years.<br>
Mine was better than SubSurface in a several ways and SubSurface is better<br>
than Dive-In in a number of ways. I still use Dive-In and have around<br>
780<br>
dives in it, but I have to run it in DosBox or WINE and that causes some<br>
issues for me. I'd like to export the data to a format that SubSurface<br>
can<br>
import and that is essentially the project.<br>
