As part of the catdoc package, there is a program called xls2csv which converts some xls files to a comma delimmited file. I find that it does not work on a lot of the xls files that i have arround, but it is a lot better than nothing. Catdoc works with almost anny ms-word .doc file and as far as i am conserned, works well. both are text-only tools. I forgot where i downloaded the package, but will have the tar file arround if you want it i can email it to you. regards, Willem > > Tools not requiring X in any form? > > Thanks > > Luke > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Blinux-list@redhat.com > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list > -- Willem van der Walt Information Services Directorate Department of Health South Africa tel: 27 12 3120700 _______________________________________________ Blinux-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
