Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Multiple excel files processing on unix Post 302291916 by ucode_2482 on Thursday 26th of February 2009 02:51:40 PM

ShawnMilo - Many thanks..!

The tool requires a filename to be specified. So, I was attempting to merge all files into one and process it. Processing them separately may not be possible because the number of input files will vary each time.

That being said, the only way that remains is to somehow convert it into a csv. As you rightly said, this will definitely work with my tool. Do you know of a unix tool that can convert an xls file on unix to csv? Or should I convert it at the source NT server? Can you please guide me on this.

Thank you.
