If you have Excel 2003, just open it and save it as a regular Excel
workbook. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services - Tutorials and Custom Solutions - http://PeltierTech.com/ 2006 Excel User Conference, 19-21 April, Atlantic City, NJ http://peltiertech.com/Excel/ExcelUserConf06.html _______ "ac" wrote in message ...

Thanks for the advise. Actually, I need to do this programmatically (using
c#) or by some command line utility (that I can script in a command file), because I don't have excel on the machines on which I need to do this. Or maybe you can suggest me of some way of creating excel files programmatically (using c#), without using actual excel, which can be read by excel 2000. I know of three ways to do this :- 1. Using .NET Office automation API, but this requires presence of excel on the machine. 2. Using ODBC, but this doesn't allow formatting of cells e.g. Color, font size, etc. 3. Creating xml files based on the schema understood by excel 2003, but my clients have excel 2000. Your advise and help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, ac.
