You can use class "QDomDocument":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qdomdocument.html which represents an XML document and has methods for adding elements and attributes.

Your question is very generic. Can you be a little more specific and maybe give an example of the starting data format and what sort fo format you wish to end up with please?

Hi Zap

QString data from each cell of table.
Where the columns name will represent the XML tagname.

"QXmlStreamWriter":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qxmlstreamwriter.html is what you are looking for. No need for a full blown DOM (like QDomDocument) just for data serialization / deserialization (would add processing and memory overhead, would add dependency to QtXml).

@
QFile xmlFile("table.xml");

xmlFile.open(QIODevice::WriteOnly | QIODevice::Truncate);

QXmlStreamWriter xmlStreamWriter(&file;);

xmlStreamWriter.writeStartDocument("1.0");
foreach(RowType row, table.rows)
{
xmlStreamWriter.writeStartElement("row");
foreach(ColumnType column, row.columns)
{
xmlStreamWriter.writeTextElement(namespaceUri, column.name, column.value);
}
xmlStreamWriter.writeEndElement();
}
xmlStreamWriter.writeEndDocument();

xmlFile.close();

Brain to terminal. Not tested.
