Managing XML spreadsheets

Hi all,

We have the requirement to store and update xml spreadsheets in the Team Concert version control system.

As you might expect, merging them is something of a nightmare.

Does anyone know of a good compare/merge tool for these? or is there a way to manage these better in Team Concert ( reserved checkout equivalent )

I know there are locks but they don't stop a user changing the file, only delivering it by which time damage is done.

Any suggestions welcome...

Many Thanks,

Robin
