I think you are talking about CSV here: CSV: comma separated values CVS: concurrent versions system > Or, Do you have others ideas ? > P.S. : the script must be automatic !! & it might be run on a unix station 1. Take a scripting language of your choice (traditional: perl, modern: python, ...). 2. Look for tools already written to perform this task: http://dbf.berlios.de/ "dbf is an easy-to-use command line tool to show and convert the content of dBASE III, IV, and 5.0 files. It reads dBASE databases and prints the content to the screen or converts it to comma-separated (*.csv) files which can be opened in Excel, StarOffice, and most other spread sheets. It can also be used to show some statistics about the content."
