Object Syntax

If you were to import the XML shown below either via the ImportXML or ImportXMLFromFile methods this would create the "Expenses" object.
The XML string, although long, is split up into six distinct sections, which are:
Initial Information about the object
Object Control Properties
Instances/Instance Properties
Cases
Decision Trees
Events
