WINDOWS to UNIX : xls to csv
Hi,
I need to ftp a .xls file from WINDOWS to UNIX. When I do it, the file coversion doesn't happen(??) or UNIX doesn't recognixe this format I know not. But there will be junk values in the ftp'd file.
Note: The ftp will be done by a script and I don't think we could place a WINDOWS script on this server to convert the file and then ftp to our UNIX server.
Please suggest...
Thanks and regards,
Gideon.

Hi,
Can anyone tell the option to change the file type in unix.
i.e. if a file is in csv(Comma Separating Values) format, it should be changed to xls(ordinary MS-Excel) format. But renaming command is not changing to correct file format.
Thanks in advance,
Milton. (1 Reply)

ftp(4) File Formats ftp(4)
NAME
ftp - FTP client configuration file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/default/ftp
DESCRIPTION
Use the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment lines and
are ignored.
Behavior Directives
The ftp file supports the following behavior directives:
FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no
The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send LIST instead. In order to
make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes
by default.
If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that is
specified in /etc/default/ftp.
