I use a free product call chilkatxml from chilkatsoft.com, The site has loads of samples but initially I found it difficult to iteriate through the record loops in the xml file.  I have detailed the code I used to load XML orders into an access database.

The first phase is to read the file into an array and the second phase will post that array into an access database. This is similar to theExcel to Access sample but I am using an array to store the data.

Dim xml As ChilkatXml
Dim rec1 As ChilkatXml, rec0 As ChilkatXml
Dim tmpLines(500, 10), i As Integer, tmpCount As Integer ' change the array depth if needed
Dim tmpHeader(25) ' change to the number of headers filds you have
Dim rst As Recordset, rstStock As Recordset
Dim x As Integer

' Load the input document.
Set xml = New ChilkatXml
xml.LoadXMLFile tmpFile ' tmpfile is the XML file passed to this function

'Header
Set rec1 = xml.FindChild("Header")
    If (rec1.FindChild2("OrderNumber") = 1) Then
        tmpHeader(1) = rec1.Content
        rec1.GetParent2
    End If
    If (rec1.FindChild2("CreationDate") = 1) Then
        tmpHeader(2) = rec1.Content
        rec1.GetParent2
    End If
    If (rec1.FindChild2("CompanyCode") = 1) Then
        tmpHeader(3) = Right("000" & rec1.Content, 3)
        rec1.GetParent2
    End If

'ship address
Set rec1 = xml.FindChild("Partners")
    If (rec1.FindChild2("Identifier") = 1) Then
        tmpHeader(4) = rec1.Content

    End If
