To see the data organized in a useful manner the first thing you need
to do is find out from the source of the XML what the schema is.
Without that all you have is a collection of bytes. With the schema
you can then interpret the bytes in a meaningful way. The
interpretation can be coded in a program to do what you want. Without
more specifics on the data itself this is about all I can say.
(Saying you have "xml" data is analogous to saying you have "ascii"
data and want to do something useful with it. xml is just an encoding
and doesn't do anything, by itself, to make the data useful)
