How do other use the Nmap XML output on Win32??  I found that OpenOffice.org Calc could not open the XML file as anything other then a plain text file.  MS Office 2000 could open the XML file in Excel, but Excel 2003 does not , not sure what M$ changed there.

How doe others use the XML output and  what applications have successfully read the output other than your custom applications?


Also Fyodor, can you tell us if after the discussions about WinPCap and how the WinPcap people suggest Nmap interact with WinPcap if you were able to made the suggested improvements?  The changes sounded like they would make things more compatible across platforms thus easier to maintain and provide compatibility with the new version of WinPcap.

thanks for everyone's hard work on Nmap!!
