To transfer the file verbatum then use binary, however what application are you using on unix that can understand XLS files?

As a hint, go to a command prompt on Windows and do "type name.xls" to print the file out, that is what unix will see.

I personally use a OLE program that drives Excel to save the document as a tab delimited file, then transfer those to UNIX.
