Cedarville university has a program called DOWNLOAD that can do both file types and others that works perfectly with UNIDATA... (It has never error-ed on me in 5 yrs.) It is free for higher ED institutions. I am not sure about the rest of the world... I bet it would work well for you. It can make DB2 and all kinds of file types...

Our UV system creates an ASCII .csv file for another system to import on a daily basis. The 3rd party software after a recent upgrade now only imports .xls files. Is there an easy way to "automate" Excel to load the .csv, then save as .xls? Or how much more difficult is it to create the .xls instead of a .csv? I thought about getting one of those programs that records mouse clicks, and create a macro of the conversion (since the filename is the same each day), but wonder if there was something we could do in a batch file and run every day under the Windows scheduler.
