To convert the XML DAT to an CSV FILE from the command line you need this tool:xml2csv

- Usage:

`xml2csv.exe <name of the XML file for input> <name of the CSV file to create> "<data to save (data1;data2)>" -D=<seperation mark>`

Example for the NDS xml dat:

`xml2csv.exe ADVANsCEne_NDScrc.xml ADVANsCEne_NDScrc.csv "imageNumber;romCRC;title" -D=;`

This will output a CSV file, wich has data seperated by ";" ,examples of the CSV file, after processing an XML DAT:
