You lost me. There is nothing in post #1 in this thread that talks about converting | characters to tabs. That is much more easily done by the simple command:
What was requested was a way to convert a text file into a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet (presumably .xls, .xlsx, .xlsm, .xlsb, or .xlx) format (all of which are proprietary Microsoft binary formats). I know that some versions of perl are able to do with when certain plugins are available, but converting a pipe symbol separated values file into a tab separated values file does not seem to make any progress towards the request stated in post #1 in this thread.

DESCRIPTION
About: Create intersections, unions, complements on bgzipped and tabix indexed VCF or tab-delimited files.
Note that lines from all files can be intermixed together on the output, which can yield unexpected results.
OPTIONS -C, --chromosomes <list|file>
Process the given chromosomes (comma-separated list or one chromosome per line in a file).
-c, --complement
Output positions present in the first file but missing from the other files.
-d, --debug
Debugging information
-f, --force
Continue even if the script complains about differing columns.
-o, --one-file-only
Print only entries from the left-most file. Without -o, all unique positions will be printed.
-n, --nfiles [+-=]<int>
Output positions present in this many (=), this many or more (+), or this many or fewer (-) files.
-p, --prefix <path>
If present, multiple files will be created with all possible isec combinations. (Suitable for Venn Diagram analysis.)
-t, --tab <chr:pos:file>
Tab-delimited file with indexes of chromosome and position columns. (1-based indexes)
-w, --win <int>
In repetitive sequences, the same indel can be called at different positions. Consider records this far apart as matching (be it a
SNP or an indel).
-h, -?, --help
This help message.
