  13.   If you can possibly get away with it, I would look at using tab delimited
  14. text instead of strict Excel format - Excel has the right to change w/o notice,
  15. and probably will. Tab delimited can't really change all that much.
  16.  
  17.   If you need examples of exporting tab delimited text, take a look at the Calc
  18. example program.
