Heelo Jeans,
I would like to explain in more as
We are using csv file upload facilty to upload data for our SAP SRM component
on unix environment.
Program works when csv file uplaoded from any client pc having msoffice
200,2002 etc
Problem is it is not recognise csv file when uploaded same file from client
pc msoffice 2003 giving error xls file format not supported

For same csv(comma separated file) file application
1. With client have machine MS-Office 2000 and 2002 shows
content type ="application/octet-stream"

2. With client have machine MS-office 2003 shows
content type = "application/vnd.ms-excel' .

Time being we are using work around like for client pc having msoffice 2003
s/w, keeping csv file open in excell application at the time of uploading
the data.

It is working very well , so we need do know if ther is any patch or setting
which can be helpfull for to support msoffice without any work around.

Regards,
Santosh

Hi,

It just means that during the installation of XL, an automatic file
association was made (open .csv with xls)
A csv file is a text file (*.txt) renamed as *.csv
