of course you can use a complicated awk script to do this (and handle the cases when the sequence of data is something else than you gave above), but i would suggest you import the xml file in a database (for example, ms access or ms excel) and then run an sql query to extract the data the way you want. i think access can also create normalised tables for you.

SYNOPSIS
xml-xparse [options] xmlfile

OPTIONS
-c catalogfile
Load a particular catalog file. May be specified multiple times.
-v Perform a validating parse. This is the default.
-w Perform a well-formed parse, not a validating parse.
-N Perform a namespace-aware parse. This is the default.
-n Perform a namespace-ignorant parse.
-d debuglevel
Set the debug level (an integer). Warnings are shown if the debug level is set to greater than 2.
-E maxerrors
Set the maximum number of errors to display. The default is 10.
FILES
/etc/java/resolver/CatalogManager.properties
The central catalog manager configuration file used by xml-xparse.
