We use Pluggers Excel plugin - works really well for both importing and
creating Excel documents:
https://www.pluggers.nl/product/xl-plugin/

The problem with exporting form Excel to a text file is if any of the cells
contain return or line feed characters, that will mess everything up as 4D
will then think that each of those returns or line feeds represents the end
of a row (record).

No problem if you don't have any text fields like that in your spreadsheet
