[RESOLVED] help in File convertion (excel)

Guys, im trying to create a program that converts an excel file into a tab-delimited text file? is there a way on how to code it? thanks!

Yes, using the Excel Object Model you can open the xls file and .SaveAs with the DOSText argument.

VB Code:

'...
'...
ThisWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="C:\Text.txt", FileFormat:=xlTextMSDOS

thanks. one question.. how can i open an excel file using that excel object model?

VB Code:

Option Explicit
'Add a reference to MS Excel xx.0 Object Library
Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Dim oApp As Excel.Application
    Dim oWB As Excel.Workbook
    Set oApp = New Excel.Application
    Set oWB = oApp.Workbooks.Open("C:\Book1.xls")
    oWB.SaveAs Filename:="C:\Text.txt", FileFormat:=xlTextMSDOS
    oWB.Close
    Set oWB = Nothing
    oApp.Quit
    Set oApp = Nothing
End Sub
