Thanks for the tip. Just tried it.

BTW, the Excel (Office 2k) I use doesn't require the .xls extension to open a file containing HTML table specs to function properly.

MS Excel will open a text file, formatted as an HTML
table, without any intervention if the file has a .xls extension.

I tried this in OpenOffice V1.1 and it worked there too. Great tip! Thanks.
