TOPIC: Importing Wordpress.com XML into PHPMyAdmin

I've been trying to import my Wordpress.com XML into PHPMyAdmin but it doesn't seem to accept XML. I say in this thread ( compojoom.com/forum/93-newbies-area/1696...y-from-wordpress-com ) that Daniel had converted one of these XML files to a SQL file... how was that done?

I've tried a couple different random programs I found online, but my XML seems to crash them..

could I possibly send my XML like the previous person did?

Hey Eric,
Read the docs and follow them
compojoom.com/support/documentation/cmigrator/ch03s03#id5236300

the summary of the docs:
1. install wordpress on your localhost
2. import the xml file in that installation
3. export the new database sql

that's it

Regards,
Daniel

Ahhh, that makes sense, thank you
