convert xml table in word table

Hello,

In a VB .NET application I need to insert an XML file (formatted like a
table) in a Word table inside my Word 2003 document.

I can parse the XML file, create the table in Word and insert line by
line the data, but do you known another way ?

Thanks in advance,
David GALLONE

Alternatives:

TRANSFORM the "plain" XML into valid WordProcessingML (a table) then
insert that using the InsertXML method.

Concatenate the information in a delimited string, assign that to a
range, then use the ConvertToTable method.

Both of these approaches would be faster than your proposed method :)
