Problem in converting password protected excel file to csv file in unix
I need to convert a password protected excel file which will be in UNIX server to a comma separated file. For this I need to open the excel file in UNIX box but the UNIX box doesn't prompt for password instead it is opened in an encrypted manner.
I could manually ftp the excel file to local machine and convert it to csv. But I need to automate this manual process for that i need to open the excel file in UNIX server which should prompt for password. Is it possible to open the password protected excel file in UNIX server?

Thanks!!!
