.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
This manual page explains the

|
.B xlhtml
|
|
program. The program
|
|
.B xlhtml
|
|
is used to convert Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet files into either html or tab delimitted ASCII. The program can be interfaced with helper scripts for viewing email attachments.

.SH NOTES
|
|
To interface to Netscape Navigator: first locate the help scripts nsxlview & nsopen. Go into the Edit Preferences dialog box. Click on the Navigator Category and hilight the Applications menu item. Look for Microsoft Excel Worksheet. If you don't see it create one. The MIME type should be: application/vnd.ms-excel The suffixes should be: xls,xlt,xlm,xld,xla,xlc,xlw,xll In the handled by section of the dialog box, check the Application checkbox and set the path to wherever the nsxlview helper script is located and pass a %s argument. For example, if nsxlview is located in /usr/local/bin, then you would put:
|
|
|
|
/usr/local/bin/nsxlview %s
|
|
|
|
in the Application path box.. (As a side note, make sure the nsxlview script can find the xlhtml program or it won't work.) Click on the OK and you are done. You should be able to use the Test.xls file that is distributed with the program to verify its configured correctly.
