PubMed to Excel: PubMed2XL version 0.9
[Mon, 20 Sep 2010 00:03:22 +0000]
I've released the first Beta version of PubMed2XL, a Windows application that converts article lists from pubmed.gov [http://pubmed.gov] into Microsoft Excel files.
If you'd like to use the software you can download [http://blog.humaneguitarist.org/projects/pubmed2xl/#Download] it. Yes, it's free.
:P
Here's a little video tutorial on installing and using the software:

The documentation includes a download link to the program files.

Awesome software... It is of great help :)
Quick update: Just swapped some emails with Mike. Looks like re-downloading the PubMed file did the trick.
Hey Mike, Thanks for checking it out. I've run it for 5,000 articles and was able to get a spreadsheet made in less than a minute. If you want to email me the XML file you used, I can test it on my end. My email is: "nitaro74" AT "gmail" DOT "com"
This is a great little program. How many articles can it convert at once? I tried it with a large search (565 articles) and it seemed to ignore it, but then downloaded a few articles as you did in the tutorial, and it worked just fine.
