isn't the ascii txt, prn, asc file format(content's layout) different from
the excel compatible csv format, eg try the excel source file option
in the old days colons (semi-colons) separations were a standard for
spreadsheet programs, on the other hand, tabs and spaces and
comma's a standard for text (ascii) programs
(roughly) for MSK :
excel= csv = colon seperated values (and not comma !!! separated values)
ascii = txt = comma dillimited contents
know too that Jay + Frans are realy hylarious about the free program
so what about sending the complete instructions, guys?
and now both for historical downloads and any last date downloads............
(the rest of) the full download+conversion job can be easely automated using
the free ScriptIt and TaskScheduler programs in Windows
(see an example DL(Convert) script on my homepage)
