XML Manipulation

Hi guys, I am currently trying to use XML generated data to create a mail merge in word. The XML file is here:

http://www.acheson-glover.com/asp/xml-retrieve.aspx

I'm trying to generate a set of labels from these addresses. If anyone has any suggestions about the easiest way to go about this I'd be greatful to hear them.

I would be happy enough to use an existing labels printing program to read my xml as opposed to using Word, however I didn't have any success finding a program that performs this. (The ones that do use XML for a data source use offline XML files only).

I have also come across a dated program that uses a Word2XML.dll to perform operations, but this didn't work for me because it generates the word files as individual files. What is the best method for parsing XML and are there any free components to aid this? Is a Word Macro out of the question.

Kind Regards,
Paul Anthony
