I have a simple XML as below and I need to display name of each and every node and its value. No element would have any attribute.

Only challenge here is there may be some element which might have sub-element in its own e.g. Address So the code needs to have a recursive function.
Also the elements which don't have any text like Address4(it only has sub-elements) should not be displayed. Also the elements like Province should not be displayed.
I tried following code but not working..
Sub Driver()
Range("4:" & Rows.Count).ClearContents
Set xmlDoc = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
i = 4
xmlDoc.LoadXML (Range("A2"))
Set oParentNode = xmlDoc.DocumentElement.SelectNodes("ResponseBody")(0)
Call List_ChildNodes(oParentNode, i, "A", "B")
End Sub
Sub List_ChildNodes(oParentNode, i, NameColumn, ValueColumn)
For Each oChildNode In oParentNode.ChildNodes
If oChildNode.ChildNodes.Length > 1 Then
Call List_ChildNodes(oChildNode, i, NameColumn, ValueColumn)
Else
Cells(i, NameColumn) = oChildNode.tagname
Cells(i, ValueColumn) = oChildNode.Text
i = i + 1
End If
Next
End Sub
Assuming your XML is in cell "A2", the first problem is that your line
Set oParentNode = xmlDoc.DocumentElement.SelectNodes("ResponseBody")(0)
Returns nothing
. Change it to
Set oParentNode = xmlDoc.DocumentElement
and the code will at least have something to process.
EDITs 1&2
The other problem is that a node-inside-a-node will not give the right output. To address that, you need to change your List_ChildNodes
function slightly. The first modification worked for the examples you had provided, but not for the later one, which does not get parsed correctly with the code I provided earlier. So I added an error trap which ensures that even this XML is read (what I believe to be) correctly. The trick of using On Error Resume Next
is essentially the VBA equivalent of a Try ... Catch
statement (except that the "catch" is: "set L to zero if there's an error. We're actually setting L to zero first, and don't overwrite that on error. Same thing, different order. One of those tricks they don't teach in school!)
Sub List_ChildNodes(oParentNode, i, NameColumn, ValueColumn)
Dim L As Integer
For Each oChildNode In oParentNode.ChildNodes
L = 0
Err.Clear
On Error Resume Next
L = oChildNode.ChildNodes(0).ChildNodes.Length
If L > 0 Then
Call List_ChildNodes(oChildNode, i, NameColumn, ValueColumn)
Else
If Not oChildNode.Text = "" Then
Cells(i, NameColumn) = oChildNode.tagName
Cells(i, ValueColumn) = oChildNode.Text
i = i + 1
End If
End If
Next
End Sub
I have tested the latest version with the bigger XML fragment that you provided, and it appeared to parse without a glitch. I wasn't going to go through it line by line to check...
