Hi Team,

Kindly help how to read values from xml and use in odt file to create conditions.

Hacking or changing any of the .odt xml files is neither recommended nor supported. It is only used as a last resort to repair damaged files.

If you want help on what you are trying to do please give a specific example in detail. It should be achievable without accessing the xml.
