Quake3World

I downloaded an xml file (around 250mg) but cant get it to open - explorer says a parsed error occurs, Firefox takes so long that I stop it and it gives a similar message

any tips or suggetions greatfully appreciated.

cheers

a 250 meg xml file..............WTF

just forget it, or buy 2 gigs of extra ddr-ram

Its gotta be workable, its a file from the USA national medical library ffs, its their MeSH index which is world famous, used everywhere etc etc.

edit what about 3rd party apps??

um, notepad?

dont think notepad can open a 250mb file sir

s@m, the fact that its used elsewhere doesnt mean its used a a whole. it most likely runs through a xslt processor that lifts out only the stuff it needs.
it doesnt open the entire file per query

MKJ - gold!!
thank you sir;
Im gonna pass this to IT now

you're at work?

I was, when I get stuck with a problem like this, I often post here: the collection of expertise crosses most professions and response times are pretty good
