Ross,
Perhaps we should all capitulate start to use flat CSV files ?
You expect delimiters? When I started in computers, our binary only had zeros
- and we were glad to have them!
The thing about MV or flat really comes down to a case-by-case to my way of
thinking. I generally
Let's not forget the lower case L for 1 (one).

First off, what are you planning to do with the data once you have it in
Excel? In most cases it won't be useful unless you explode/flatten the
data out. We have a few (UniData) solutions for turning LIST/SORT/CT
output into symbolic link/html(with or without table view)/csv files,
and use
Jim the short answer is you can't.
You can however strip all non printable characters by passing the data
through OCONV(mydata, MCP)
This turns all non printables into the period character .
To seperate your fields, pass the data through a conversion like
CONVERT(VM,|, mydata)
which will turns

If you are normalizing the data, you can dump the data into an XML format
using an exploded SORT with the TOXML keyword. You can then load that
directly, at least if you are running Excel 2003.
Brian,
The best way to importing multiline cells into Excel is to generate a HTML
file that represents the spreadsheet cells as an HTML table. You can then
import line breaks using the HTML br tag. It requires a few lines of
code,
but it is pretty trivial.
Has anyone ever tried using the SYLK
I use it all the time using our inhouse utilities and it works well. I
do remember something strange in the totalling logic of sylk, something
about being relative to the current row I believe.
