I did the same thing Javier did (same options, same versions). Excel gave me the following error upon opening the file: "Errors were detected in "test2.xls" but Microsoft Excel was able to open the file by making the repairs below. Save the file to make these repairs permanent: lost document information". The file otherwise looked fine.

When I tried to open the file with Excel 2000 (9.0.3821 SR-1) I got the following error message: "This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shutdown. If the problem persist, contact the program vendor" I am running Window 98SE and Rbase 6.5++ Build 1.855XRT03. I would say the problem is reproducible and probably a bug.

I replaced the string XLS5 with DB4, and Excel opened the file perfectly, but of course the column Identifiers were Col_1, Col_2, etc. Is it me? -- Albert Berry Full Time Consultant to PSD Solutions 350 West Hubbard, Suite 210 Chicago, IL 60610 312-828-9253 Ext. 32 __________________________________________________________________ The NEW Netscape 7.0 browser is now available.
