    Question Archived PMs, reading the XML format

    Hey folks,

    Has anyone got a nifty scheme to read and search their PMs from the downloaded XML file?

    Searching through them in Word just doesn't seem that fun...

    I keep them in a folder and use findstr to search them, then I open the matching file in Notepad and search for the text I'm focusing on.

    That works very well, but I'd like something cleaner.

Nightly I am amazed at the personalities and gaming talent.

    What are you guys trying to do exactly? Are you trying to view them externally?

    This seems to work fairly well.
