Re: Products to convert SpoolFiles/Reports to .csv ?

While I agree in principle, I think it depends if we are talking about
vendor or inhouse programming. Especially with vendor software, the needed
data may only be available in spooled format (without reverse-engineering
the logic to derive the data).

Now, on the other hand I personally don't like the idea of converting
a spooled file to csv (or another form of data). Why? Well, it's a
picture of the data, and if you have the actual data available it's
much easier and more reliable, I think, to use a program or even
query/SQL to create a temporary file, convert that to CSV and go from
there.
