Hello,
   I am using a software writtten in XML to download data from a medical 
device.
The software provides a graphical display of the data but does not allow to 
export the data themselves.
I don;t know XML at all (I have some experience with VB 6) and I would like 
to know how to dexompress the data file and export them to analyze them.
The data are included in the following script ( I think):

-------------

Please note: I removed most of the characters in the line:

IsCompressed="1">eJzcvQd4VtXW77tghjYJEOlSI01AQJoYkBJ6FZBmKGKki4CA9N6kifQSQgu992poAQER6SIERAgICEiXEgHhzv8 
...</DatabaseRecords>

and replaced with "..." not to make this post  too heavy.

I would greatly appreciate any help from the XML gurus.

I can send the whole file (including the portion removed) plus there are 
other files in the same directory (about 500Kb total) .

Thanks in advance.

Luca
