XML file extensions

I have a machine with Excel 2003 Pro installed. Whenever I create an XML
file in any directory on the hard drive (created from SQL Server Database via
Visual Studio) the XML file is automatically converted to an Excel 4.0 Macro
file. It is then no longer recognised as an XML file.

It would appear that somehow XML files are associated with Excel
automatically. Can I turn this off?

TIA
Rowan
 
Ignore me, I coded the file extension as XLM by mistake - which of course is
an Excel 4.0 Macro!!!
