How to convert Text data to xls?
Hi Team,

I have created a script to output DB Query data to a text file. It displays output as follows for 2 different queries appended to same file.

I want help to convert this data to xls format so that the output of first query is in 1 tab and the other in second tab. Please help.

Code:
BATCHID     STARTDATE                  FINDATE
