Open files can be get at least by two ways.

1. Open files regarding to an array of files.
var myFiles = [File(".../file1.indd"),File(".../file2.indd"),etc.]
for(i=0; i<myFiles.length; i++) { app.open(myFilesArr[i]); }

2. Open files located in a folder
var myFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Choose a folder");
var myFiles = myFolder.getFiles ("Indesign: *.indd") //Always forget how to express filters :-%
for(i=0; i<myFiles.length; i++) { app.open(myFilesArr[i]); }

For me you have a confusion between xml and datamerge. For me you use one of both techniques but not twice at a time. But you may know what you want to do.
