I'm not exactly sure if "process" is the right word, so I'll describe what I mean. There are two XML files ( and that are constantly updated online, and I want to be able to compare certain numbers in the two files.

Problem is, I really have no clue where to begin. I've heard that you can import XML into Microsoft Excel, but it can only refresh once every minute. Ideally I'd be able to compare the files almost constantly (like every 5 seconds or something). What are my other options? I don't really know any computer programming (besides a minimal amount of C), so I would really appreciate any help, just pointing me in the right direction.

Thanks for any help!
