02 / what you get

What happens to your data

Kept

  • The repeating elements (for example every <book>) become the records, and their child tags become fields
  • Attributes are kept as fields named @_attribute, for example @_id
  • Codes with leading zeros, like 007, stay text instead of turning into 7
  • A clean Excel workbook with one sheet, where plain numbers are real numeric cells you can sum and sort

Good to know

  • Only the repeating records are exported. The wrapper elements around them (like <catalog>) are dropped.
  • Text mixed with tags inside one element is read as a #text field.
  • The result is plain values on one sheet named Sheet1. There are no formulas, styles, column widths or charts.
  • Nested objects and lists cannot sit in a table cell, so they are written into the cell as JSON text, for example {"city":"Lviv"}.

03 / formats

XML vs XLSX

XML

An XML (Extensible Markup Language) file stores structured data using custom, nested tags, similar to HTML. It's verbose but strict, which makes it reliable for automated systems — common in enterprise software, government forms, and legacy data exports.

Used in: Enterprise systems · Government forms · Legacy data exports

XLSX

An XLSX file is a modern Excel workbook: sheets of cells with numbers, text, formulas and formatting. It is the default for spreadsheets today. Converting it gives you the first sheet as plain data (JSON keeps every sheet), so other tools can read it.

Used in: Excel · Business reports · Financial data
