Hello Guys,
Very new to this forum
I need to have a batch file program which converts text file into Excel format
as an example the contents will have 3 lines as below:
1|0|32|1|1|2|0|0|1|0|0|2222|0|0|0|0|20170130151125|20170130151210|
2|0|32|1|1|2|1|1|1|2222|1000|2222|0|0||0|20170130151125|20170130151210|
10000|0|32|1|1|2|NULL|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|20170130151125|20170130151210|
the 2nd line needs to be address importantly for further processing.
Thanks
Rajesh

If I understand your question correctly, you don't need any form of batch file. You can use the Data import function of Excel to import the data. You will need to setup the delimiter as the '|' character since it is used in your text file to separate the data values.
What version of Excel are you using?
-
Batch files cannot read or write excel files. If you need to read or write excel files then use Vbscript, Jscript or Powershell.

Your logic is backward. He does not need a batch file to read or write Excel files. He needs to know how to import data into Excel.

No. I import (write) text files into excel all the time with Vbscript. There is nothing illogical about it.

Absolutely.
