dotnet xml: Hi, just wondering if anyone knows if you can embedd a macro in an xml file?
I have an xml file that I create with a .net web application and it opens
with Excel, but would be nice to attatch a macro to it as well.
Thanks.

XML isn't a programming language, so it can't have macros in the sense
that you mean them. See http://xml.silmaril.ie/authors/execute/

Some processors (including browsers) may react to special features like
Processing Instructions to initiate additional actions (eg loading a
stylesheet).
