Read Hyperion Planning webform XML with VBScript

Question

I exported all the webforms from our Hyperion Planning system and I'm trying to build a database, listing the key details of each webform. The webform is exported into XML, that looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<form xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" name="6.4 AC Planning" dir="Forms/PnL Inputs" enableOffline="false" planType="2" hide="false" enableCubeView="false" readOnly="false" >
<instruction>Use this form to view detailed account information, and input base level adjustments.</instruction>
<query>
    <columns width="100" >
        <segment>
            <dimension displayName="true" displayAlias="false" displayMemberFormula="false" displayConsolidationOperators="false" name="Period" hide="false" expand="true" >

                    <member name="YearTotal" />
                </function>

So I'm looking to build from this something that says:

Dimension | Location | Display name | Display alias | Members
______________________________________________________________________
Account   | Row      | False        | True          | PL214040; PL214096; PL214011_01; etc
Period    | Column   | True         | False         | Descendants(YearTotal)

I'm using vbscript and I tried to solve it with RegEx searches, but while they worked fine for most details, but the member list.

That's when I switched to XMLDOM, but I can't get ahead with it. I researched it here a lot, found a lot of good materials, but I was unable to adopt them to pull out the above.

Keep in mind that some forms will have account in the columns, some in pov, etc. I have a list of possible dimensions, so I know what to look for, but everything else is different from one XML to the next.

Any help would be much appreciated!

a little later: based on some of the comments (thank you!) and some more fidgeting with XMLDOM, I'm finally able to retrieve out the first 3 columns of my desired end result, now I "only" have trouble getting out all the members included with each dimension.

Below is the code, I hope this clarifies further my query and somebody will be able to help with how to collect the members and where used functions for each dimension.

Set xmlDoc=CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
xmlDoc.async="false"
xmlDoc.load("c:\Users\maxlamer\Documents\6.4 AC Planning.xml")
arrMyDimensions=Array("Account","Period","Currency/Value","Year","Entity","Scenario","ICP","Channel","Version","RptLevel","EVA","Product")

Set nodes = xmlDoc.selectNodes("//*")    
For i = 0 to nodes.length - 1
    bolFoundOne = False
    m=0
    For n=LBound(arrMyDimensions) to UBound(arrMyDimensions)
        If nodes(i).getAttribute("name")=arrMyDimensions(n) Then 
            bolFoundOne = True
            m=n
        End if
    Next
    If bolFoundOne Then
        If nodes(i).parentNode.nodeName="pov" Then
            WScript.Echo arrMyDimensions(m) & " is in:" & nodes(i).parentNode.nodeName
        Else
            WScript.Echo arrMyDimensions(m) & " is in:" & nodes(i).parentNode.parentNode.nodeName
        End if
        Set pn_attribs = nodes(i).attributes
        strMyTempString = arrMyDimensions(m) & " attributes :"
        For Each pnAttr in pn_attribs
            strMyTempString = strMyTempString & pnAttr.name & " = " & pnAttr.value & vbTab
        Next
        WScript.Echo strMyTempString & vbCrlf
        arrMyDimensions(m)="XX_Located_XX"
    End if
Next

I know the above is rather crude and I still need to build a proper wrapper to make the output nicely formatted, but should give you a good idea of what I'm driving at. Now I just need the last column.
