> yeah but the thing is XLS spreadsheets have a lot more > meta-data than CVS can handle
I've found the easiest way for us was to use the "XML Spreadsheet" option (available via the Save As->Type drop-down in at least Excel 2003 if not 2000, and readable in 2007 too). It's fairly easy to reverse-engineer from an exported example, and much cleaner than OOXML or pure XLS format. It's pretty easy to turn into a Django template too. Most importantly for my uses, it's possible to do things like keep leading zeros, which Excel likes to dump from CSV/Tab files. -tim --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
