RE: [U2] xls to text [off-topic] anti-spam address munging
It's much more practical than protecting against packet sniffers. Anyone can subscribe to the list and get addresses and anyone can go to the archive (with a program) and harvest addresses from prior postings going back a few years. It happens all the time and I do my best to avoid it. Sorry for the inconvenience.

RE: [U2] xls to text
It's not paranoia if they really ARE after you. ;-) Seriously, though -- we are careful about protecting our subscribers' privacy. We have disabled the majordomo 'who' command, and closed the 'which @' security hole to prevent spammers from harvesting email addresses en masse. Unfortunately, those precautions don't stop someone from subscribing to the list, and harvesting email addresses individually, from each post. They also don't prevent someone from searching the archives (which are not under my control) for email addresses.

Re: [U2] xls to text- OT
Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean that somebody isn't out to get me. The address I'm using is only used for this list. And fortunately, I get practically no Spam. But at my main addy it's more like 10-20 a day. Sometimes allegedly from an old addy that was deactivated about 3 years ago. A friend who general manages a publishing company has to change his biz addy every 6-12 months to get away from Spam. Rog [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I don't think it is overly paranoid.

Re: [U2] xls to text
Does anyone know where I can get FREE software that will convert Excel files to text files in command line mode ? Rudy, None that I know of but I do have experience with the jakarta poi library from apache. I have only used it to create spreadsheets but it also supports reading them. You would need to cobble together a java prog that read the spreadsheet and spat out what you want but based on my experience with the library it shouldn't be too hard. Not quite what you wanted but if you can't find anything else... As it is java you could run it on pretty much any platform as well. Regards, Adrian How about trying openoffice.org? I'm not sure if it has commandline options, but it does everything else...

Re: [U2] xls to text
Rudy,
Does anyone know where I can get FREE software that will convert Excel
files to text files in command line mode ?
Have you considered a perl script? The Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Simple
module is very easy to use.
This might even work for you (no promises there aren't errors):
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Simple;
my $xls = Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Simple-read('./source.xls');
my $sheet = ($xls-sheets)[0];
my @data='';
open(CSV, ./destination.txt);
$ = ,;
while ($sheet-has_data) {
my @data = $sheet-next_row;
for(i=0; i @data; i++){
# Double Quote Quotes
$data[i] =~ s///g;
# Quotes around any field containing commas or double quotes
if ($data[i] =~ /[,]/){
$data[i] = \$data[i]\;
}
}
print CSV @data\n;
}
close(CSV);
regards,
Craig
