My application would be a transcoder. I get excel-files from a customer,
and I need a csv-like output. This is read by a proprietary application.
What I do now is read the excel-file in OOo or MS-Excel, save it as csv
and, with an editor, I fix the file (with a bunch of replaces) so that
the prop. application can read the file.
I would like to automate this : just read the excel-file and have the
output-file ready to read.
I could start from OOo format, it would be one step more than I would
like, but a lot less work than now.

I'll have a look at the OOo demo's.

Thanks,

Koenraad Lelong.

If you're interested in an alternative: ExcelInterfaces provides an interface to Excel using the COM interface. This is very stable over time. One asks for the data directly through Excel installed. It's possible to read/write data, and also to format the spreadsheets.

Take a look here, if your other solutions don't work. I'm also always interested in feedback.

I hope this helps
Thierry
