then I found a very simple way to convert a unicode file to ascii 
in DOS,
TYPE my-unicode-file > my-ascii-file


This line converts the file to ascii, just non-convertable characters 
looks wierd but rest is ok.

You can also use read/binary on the data, then EXTRACT with a value 
of 2 to just remove all the nulls (assuming wide chars). Unicode 
chars will be munged that way too though.

Hi, I'm tring to use "Excel Interface" of Gregg Irwin, with documentation 
dated 18-Dec-2004. I'm wondering if there is any way to select a 
worksheet's all used content, that's all cells having values? From 
the documentation, I don't see how.

Also to make the Excel Interface to work, I'm wondering, where I 
should put the DLL file?

I guess that this is of some documenation, how can I open it, reb-excel-docs.rdml?

The DLL should go in the dir with your script or encapped app. RDML 
is plain text, but I can send you the html generated from it if you 
want. I don't remember doing anything for finding cells with contents.

I don't have Excel on this machine, so can't test.

Gregg, thanks!. Please the pointer on  how to generate the html file 
from *.RDML, is through make-doc?

Actually, I guess the generated html may already be available to 
me: reb-excel-docs

Yes it is in there. You can find that document online in Robert's 
blog.

Robert extended makedoc, but I'm not sure if this doc might build 
under RT's makedoc. Robert might say, but it sounds like it's on 
the web anyway.

I think REBOL is a much better name since it includes "O" (holistic 
approach). All names without "O" are faulty. OBERON has two O's and 
MACHINE CODE has a single O :)

O

 makes mind think it all holistically and perfectly. GOD has O, too. 
 Names without O don't force human recognition apparatum to loop at 
 quality assurance of a code that is being produced. REBOL has O, 
 too.
