callhistory.xml

restamp:
On the latest Obis, you can log into its internal web server and dump the call history to a local callhistory.xml file.  Can anyone point me to a program that will display the contents of this file in a human readable format, or perhaps provide the style information which will allow a web browser to do so?

azrobert:
You can use Microsoft's Excel to open an XML file.

Thanks azrobert.  The only M$ Office software I have is fairly old, and my Excel didn't do anything but load the file verbatim into its various A column cells.  I also tried LibreOffice with similar results.  Guess I need a newer version of Office.

azrobert:
I have a 2007 version of Excel and I opened a configuration backup file. I got a popup and took the default "As XML File". The result was 4 columns.

Here is an example of a row:
A: VoiceService.1.VoiceProfile.1.Line.1.
B: X_DisplayLabel
C: Google Voice
D: Y or Blank (I think Y=default)

I was going to suggest OpenOffice's CALC program, which is another free alternative to Microsofts office products.  http://www.openoffice.org/   (.org not .com)

When I tried to open the CallHistory in Excel 2010 I was asked if I wanted to open the file as an XML table and I said yes. I got columns of data.

Openoffice is not easy. There is a document to help. https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&p=99800

Chrome said there was not a stylesheet and opened the file without columns
