You can save your excel spreadsheet as a tab
deliminated file by default just by saving it as a
text file. -Pat

cups" right now, as I have just returned toSarasota
(yes, five months in a row I have missed the LUG
meetings, butone must make a living... just seems I
always travel on the meetingdates, grrrr...) anyway, I
am glad to be back home, but I believe thereis a PERL
script that does exactly what you want, but in my
currentstate, I canna remember what it is called. Go
to www.perlmonks.org and use their search engine with
"excel" as yourtopic. You might have to adjust the
script to do your 'tab' thing, butI think I have seen
this before. Unfortunately, or fortunately,depending
on your take of the juice of the barley, I am under
Sam Adamscontrol right now. Hopefully this will point
you in the semi-correctdirection. The Drunk
