Jeff,

No, I never typed the file tag, I never do that. I just tapped save and wrote "2009-09 Diary", nothing more, and then saved it. I have tried converting it by doing a "save as" and made sure the file type was XML, but I get the same thing.

    Open Raw is for opening PDB files; perhaps you saved it with an 
".xml" name, but in actuality it is a PDB file? ie: Did you 'save as pdb' 
and name it .XML?

    You shoudl likely be able to save-as XML to make it a true XML 
file then, if that guess is right.
