word 2003 to translate word document to XML file

[Fred Aerts]

I have translated a word document to an XML file. I used
the attributes BOLD, UNDERLINE and ITALIC in my text. In
the XML file I find in the name of the attribute field a
little b,u or i so an indication of the attribute used.
However in most other software (fe Formscape) you can not
use the name of a field to test the attribute but you need
fe a text value in a field.
Is this something we can expect from future versions of
Word 2003 and saving the file as an XML?
