Custom DSC - Convert Excel document into XML

This Custom DSC will be helpful to Convert your Excel files into XML data.

This component uses the Apache's POI to read the Excel content and returns org.w3c.dom.Document.

The resultant XML will contain a root tag named 'ExcelContent' with each Sheet name as its immediate children.

Each row of the sheets will be appended as nested chil

dren nodes.

Optionally, you can ignore the first row of the sheets in the resultant XML and use them as tag names instead.
