Unfortuantely you cannot use it directly, but if you have Excel 2003 (and
perhaps earlier, I do not know) you can open it in that program, save it as
a .xls, and merge that. If you have Access 2003, you could do something
similar. There are other ways you could potentially transform a .xml file
for use as a merge data source but that's probably the simplest.
