Convert data files to Excel

[Catherine Litten]

When creating downloads for excel - I usually included the commas and quote
delimiters as defined items in the file so it is ready to upload into excel
and "SET SUBFILE PORTABLE" so that the spacing is consistent and the
numerics come out right.

Hope this helps,

Subject: Convert data files to Excel


I'm trying to move a quiz subfile to Excel. I've emailed myself a text
file that I've renamed with the excel file extension which works fine
except when opening it, I have to tweek it a bit to make the columns fit
correctly.  I've delimited this file with a "|" and with a ",". Both do
the same thing.  I would like to be able to have this file open without
having to tweek the file. Any suggestions?
