How do I use XML to import the data from a sports-site rss-feed and use it in Access. I am trying to build a sports pool management database. I am trying to learn how to do it myself as opposed to purchasing off the net.

Can some one help me?
 
You can import XML directly with Access XP edition.

A more important question, though, is what are you trying to achieve? What's your end goal? It may be that you can just use the feed as is with a stylesheet to display the info in the way you want.

I am trying to develop a way of managing a sports pool which will allow me to download data from a sports site directly to a data basea nd then updata the total points for each player a person has on their roster. It was suggested that I use XML to do this.
