Processing data from the form builder

Simon@CUHK
Dear sir,

Can the data of the form builder be extracted like a microsoft excel file?
Or is there any application that can be showing the data form the form builder like an spreadsheet?
Or simply, can all the data set from the same form be saved in one xml file?
I have tried to use the eXist Admin Client to extract data but the data is saved in different xml file. It is no good for processing the data.

Regards,
Simon

Out of the box, no.

You could write a very simple XQuery that would combine all the data  
into a single XML file. It shouldn't be too hard.
