Re: [MLUG] good Excel to text converter?

["Diana Hargus" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

Mike,

Are you looking for an automated process, or would OpenOffice Calc work? 
Open the file in OO.o Calc, save as .csv, where it prompts for the 
separation character(s).  or some combination of these things.  Or, a perl 
solution like this one:

hope this helps
