Re: Excel Output File

Well i havent tried it in 97 and don know if any of the clients are using 97... but i always let them choose between a tab delimited text file that they can import to other apps, or an excel doc.... its the same exact file either way... i just change the extension xls for excel and txt for text.

  I'm needing to generate a file in CF that can be directly read in to Excel spreadsheet.  I thought a tab-delimited file would do it but Excel '97 won't read it.  Complains about it not being a valid SYLK file format.

  I'm sure others have been able to create excel compatible files, what's the trick?
