hello,

use the commandline tool ssconvert (if you do not want to save your file within Excel into csv, txt etc.)

info ssconvert: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man1/ssconvert.1.html#example

code you need: ssconvert -O 'separator=; format=raw' samples/excel/statfuns.xls statfuns.txt

best regards,

reinier

Could you give me more tips on how to use it?

Hi,

Download Gnumeric via

https://portableapps.com/apps/office/gnumeric_portable

and install it.

The file ssconvert.exe can be found in a subfolder. In my case:

D:\PortableApps\PortableApps\GnumericPortable\App\Gnumeric\bin

To make it simple, put your Book1.xls in this directory.

Launch the Command Prompt, go to the bin directory and enter the next command

ssconvert -O "separator=$ format=raw" Book1.xls Book1.txt

(I always use a separator that is not used in the Excel-file, e.g. $ or #)

Press return and Book1.txt will be made.

You've only to replace $ with "," in Book1.txt. You can do this with a text processor or
with your VisualNeo application (FileRead etc.).

Yes, you can make your own VisualNeo conversion application using ssconvert.exe (including some dependencies).

Best regards,
Reinier
