    Hello there,

    I was working on a Business Card design. Wherein I need to add Name, Address, Phone and Email of every person. I had all the data in Microsoft Excel. Then I exported my excel file to XML, and tried loading the XML file from Illustrator's Variables Palate. But I get an error message saying "The incoming variable library in invalid" !

    Is there a way I can make my excel file into a valid XML file.

    I also came across this link

    but it seems that the script is not download able...

    Any help in this regard would be of great help.

    Thanks.

    P.S.: I use both Windows XP and Max OS X

    Regards,
    Pratik
