I dump csv files and convert to true excel with perl using 
preadsheet::WriteExcel module.  Once scripted it's pretty painless and 
utomated.

 Subject: [U2] Building an Excel File

 We are running UniData on a UNIX platform.  We create tab-delimited txt files 
and tab delimited txt files with xls extensions) all the time that users open 
ith Excel.  Many of these jobs are run in the middle of the night or in a 
rigger program.  In all cases, there is no direct user interaction building 
hese files.

 We also have some XML files that are coded so that Excel opens them with 
ormatting, colors, filters, etc.

 Unfortunately, our BB users and iPhone users can not open these files up in a 
eaningful way.

 Is there a way to build a TRUE Excel file without any user intervention from 
niData or UNIX?
