Law) Newsgroups: comp.databases,comp.sys.ibm.pc Subject: LOTUS WKS Format Message-ID: <322@swdev.Waterloo.NCR.COM> Date: 28 Jun 88 18:55:46 GMT Distribution: na Organization: E & M Waterloo, NCR Canada Ltd, Waterloo, Ont, Canada Lines: 20 We are creating an application that takes data records captured from a remote terminal and converts this data into a format readable by a data base or spread sheet program. Ideally we would like to provide one of two formats: ASCII and LOTUS 1-2-3. The ASCII format is easy enough to create and provide a method for the user to "program" the actual output format. The LOTUS format is a little tougher. So far I have been unable to track down the format of a LOTUS WKS file. I would appreciate if some kind soul could email me a definition of a WKS file or how I might obtain a definition (e.g. reference books, etc). Any information that you can provide would be greatly appreciated. ========================================================================== ---- Neil ---- N.Law@Waterloo.NCR.COM {sdcsvax,cbosgd,pyramid}!ncr-sd!ncrlnk!ncrwat!swdev!neil
