saving as a CSV would not involve formats
However, you havent' said what language you are
programming in.
In VB6,
VB.Net set a reference to the MS Excel Objects
Library. Having done so yuo can instantaite the
application, ad a workbook, popu;ate teh sheets etc and
save the workbook.
Without knowing what you're intending, its a tough
question. However, you can examine the object model in
the object browser.

Ej,
Not really programming in Excel, so a little OT....
I'd like to create an Excel-file from within a little
program I'm writing.
It has to export query-results to a file, readable for
Excel.
Creating tsv or csv is not really an option, since I
don't want to be
bothered with the import options when opening such files.
So now I need to know how xls-files are built, what info
they contain etc.
Anyone got a hint where to find this info, if it is
available at all?
Other suggestions are welcome too, workarounds are
programmable too :-)
TIA!
