Shouldn't be to hard...

Element root = document.getRootNode();

List groups = root.getChildren("group");

ListIterator groupIterator = groups.listIterator();

ArrayList stringList = new ArrayList();

while(groupIterator.hasNext()){

	Element group = (Element)groupIterator.next();

	String groupName = group.getAttributeValue("name");

	stringList.add(groupName);

	List companies = group.getChildren("company");

	ListIterator companyIterator = companies.listIterator();

	while(companyIterator.hasNext()){

		Element company = companyIterator.next();

		companyName = company.getChildText("fullname");

		stringList.add(groupName + "->" + companyName);
	}

}



Or something like that.....I just wrote this from the top of my head, so
It may very well contain some errors ;)
