The netlist output is fairly simple and is probably fields separated by spaces, tabs, or commas. What format is he using to read in the file? Is he writing it our as the same format? (.CSV?) I've run into something like this and found that Excel was filtering out extra spaces or putting quote marks around every field that it read in that looked like text. Look at the file in a real text editor if you can, and the filtering or formatting that Excel is doing will probably be obvious.
