Welcome to the forum @dangh and thanks for adding your profile picture. It helps build community! We're glad you're here. When you get a chance, please [introduce yourself on this forum thread](https://forum.getodk.org/t/-/6671).

Unfortunately, you can only load `.odkbuild` files into ODK Build. I think most users find it best to work in `.xlsx` files using [XLSForm](https://xlsform.org/). I don't think there are any straightforward ways to convert from `.xml` back into other formats.
