Hi do you wish to edit the file or just view it? You can use gedit help.ubuntu.com/community/gedit ubuntu's build in text editor.

XML files are text files, so any text editor can open it. But if you want to perform XML validation on it, then you need some XML editor that will also load the XSD file related to the XML and perform the validation (check that you enter the correct tag with the correct value type).

If the file is an XML table, you can open it in LibreOffice Calc through the Data > XML Source menu. Inside it, you just need to open the XML file, point to the table you're importing on the left column and specify a destination in your sheet in the right text field. Example:

The default Gedit text editor is capable of opening the file - I also suggest you try Bluefish, which can do XML as well HTML and other languages. It also does auto-completion, and highlighting.
Here are examples of the above editors based on this:
N.B. With Gedit, you have to add some of the above by changing a few settings and activating a few plugins.

In case you don't succeed with LibreOffice, try using SoftMaker FreeOffice. This free office suite has much better import and export filters that let you run Microsoft Office formats faithfully. The whole office suite is feature-packed, but needs only 58MB. It's well coded, very fast and reliable. Here's the link where to get it:

You may find XMLStarlet useful, if you are familiar with XPATH concepts (or prepared to learn them).
This is a command-line tool which can select data from an XML file on the basis of the types of elements and the values of their attributes or those of related elements. I am not sure if it is easy to generate a CSV file or other suitable for loading into LibreOffice (if that is your aim), or whether you would need to transform it a little first. (I shall try to remember to update this if I find out more.)
The examples given in the Wikipedia article (link above) show the command as xml (e.g. xml sel for a selection), but in my case (OpenSuse Leap) it is xmlstarlet, which is also the package to install; I do not know what the situation is for Ubuntu.

In case you don't succeed with LibreOffice, try using SoftMaker FreeOffice. This free office suite has much better import and export filters that let you run Microsoft Office formats faithfully. The whole office suite is feature-packed, but needs only 58MB. It's well coded, very fast and reliable. Here's the link where to get it:

You may find XMLStarlet useful, if you are familiar with XPATH concepts (or prepared to learn them).
This is a command-line tool which can select data from an XML file on the basis of the types of elements and the values of their attributes or those of related elements. I am not sure if it is easy to generate a CSV file or other suitable for loading into LibreOffice (if that is your aim), or whether you would need to transform it a little first. (I shall try to remember to update this if I find out more.)
The examples given in the Wikipedia article (link above) show the command as xml (e.g. xml sel for a selection), but in my case (OpenSuse Leap) it is xmlstarlet, which is also the package to install; I do not know what the situation is for Ubuntu.

Hi do you wish to edit the file or just view it? You can use gedit help.ubuntu.com/community/gedit ubuntu's build in text editor.

XML files are text files, so any text editor can open it. But if you want to perform XML validation on it, then you need some XML editor that will also load the XSD file related to the XML and perform the validation (check that you enter the correct tag with the correct value type).

And what exactly were you expecting? It's an XML file!
