>Has anyone read the latest article on XML implementation in Office
2000?

I think that a better name than "MS-XML" would be "XRTF," since it looks
like an XML app whose goal is to replace RTF. Any replacement for "rich"
text "format" that conforms to a real DTD that we can all find somewhere
is a Good Thing, but as Simon pointed out (I think), the problem with
the article is that it doesn't put this MS-XML into perspective as one
XML application among many out there.
