Paul,

There are multiple ways to parse the XML DomDocument. You grabbed all the
elements called "Bank", you could then grab the elements called "Content" or
loop through the child nodes.

   goXML = CREATEOBJECT('MSXML2.DomDocument')
   goXML.Load("Formats.XML")
   gcolElements = goxml.getElementsByTagName("Bank")
   For Each element In gcolElements
      ? element.attributes.item(0).text,element.attributes.item(1).text
      IF  element.haschildnodes
         FOR EACH content IN element.childNodes
            ? content.attributes.item(0).text,
content.attributes.item(1).text
         NEXT
      ENDIF 
   EndFor
