XML content editor recommendation

[Rebam98]

Hi,
I've been looking hard for an XML content editor with no luck.

The structure of XML files we use is inflexible. They cannot change. However, we edit the content in them frequently for technical purposes.

We have very long files and need to change every entry of certain fields. We ideally need something that shows the data in a grid format. It also should be able to do simple math, e.g. increment by 10 from one field to the next.

Excel would be ideal but it cannot handle a list of lists. It lists one field multiple times.

Any ideas at all would be appreciated. I've been using Altova Authentic without much luck.
