Hello Forum

I am creating a simple application that runs of data in an extenal XML file.

The client has not enough money to create a database and the php middleware to
facilitate the XML file creation so I am trying to look into a way for him to
create the XML from Excel perhaps...? The person is not the most computer
literate but I think if there' s a popular or somewhat userfriendly program
that I could configure to take a bunch of rows (name, title, link, description)
and export that data properly configuered as an XML file which he can then FTP
up to the server that would be a fantastic alternative...

Does anyone have any good (or bad) experiences with such an approach? Any
recommendations for software that regular people would know how to use? (I
would like to avoid having to sit down with him and explain him the beauty of
XML...)

Any advice is much appreciated.

Thank you for your time.

Cheers
