<DIV>I was playing around this morning with some of the Excel spreadsheets we create from filePro. These are done as dif files.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The data is fine the column headings and extra blank lines come over correctly as well.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My question....</DIV>
<DIV>Has anyone found a way to set the cell attributes during the export process? Things like the column width or height, data position center or right, bold or underline, etc.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If this could be done I know it would save me a lot of time each week instead of having to do this manually and resave as an xls file.</DIV>

<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman, new york, times, serif">You understand that I am generating these from filepro (export - dif format)? I guess I could write these as an HTML table. Is there any difference I should be aware of between HTML and XHTML?</DIV>
