exporting attributes

[Ted B Dodd]

A few years back, we had an application that required attributes.  We used
the SYLK format.  It imported directly into Excel (97 at the time) and the
ensuing macro did all the rest of the work including the creation of a pie
chart.

Subject: exporting attributes

 

I was playing around this morning with some of the Excel spreadsheets we
create from filePro.  These are done as dif files.

 

The data is fine the column headings and extra blank lines come over
correctly as well.

 

My question....

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.

 

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.

 

Thank you in advance
