dsonesuk Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Well that's not going to happen! It is a simple text editor. You need Notepad++ it free, and retains correct formatting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harish pathak Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 Hi dsonesuk, Thanks for your prompt reply. What do you say about the following statement that I found in another forum. Please give your views, I am not getting this point. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The XML file needs to be formatted (or viewed) with an XML editor or processed with an XML formatting tool, if you want to view it with Notepad. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What should I do to view xml file in notepad in xml format. Thanks in advance. Harish Pathak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsonesuk Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 XML is text based data storage, it can be viewed just as well in editor such as Notepad++ properly indented and formatted. XML specific editors can do the same and much more, including importing data as xml, as well as styling with XSLT. To view in Notepad in a proper format such as indented etc, it would have to be formatted with required line break, tabbing that notepad will recognised to produce the required result.

dsonesuk Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 You would google to find such a formatting tool, or online service, I searched and there are such tools. Which tool? I wouldn't know cause I haven't had to use such a tool, I would use what I've already mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
