Tool for Convert XLS into CSV in UNIX
Hi
I wanted to convert some XLS files into CSV format in my UNIX box. Unix box is handling very important data which are related to data warehouse.It is fully optimized by installing minimum packages since server need more resources to handle reports generating.
Just for convert XLS files into CSV i supposed to use , JODConverter. But JODConverter runs based on OPenOffice.OpenOffice service needed to be started.
But in my Server , i can not install openoffice software .Is there any possibility to activate OpenOffice Service only?
or else can somebody recommend me to any other ways to do this?
I dont need a software to convert files. I need some thing possible to execute in command line because i wanted schedule the job via a cron job.
Thanks in Advance
Luke
