* '''MSXML 5.0''' MSXML5 was a binary developed specifically for [[Microsoft Office]]. It originally shipped with Office 2003 and also ships with [[Office 2007]]. Microsoft has not released documentation for this version because Microsoft considers MSXML 5 an internal/integrated component of Office 2003. MSXML 5 is not included in [[Microsoft Office 2010|Office 2010]].<ref>[https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc178954%28office.14%29.aspx#BKMK_WhatsRemoved Office 2010: What's removed: Office 2010 Resource Kit documentation on TechNet]</ref>
