Is there a way to create a tab dilimited text file in
excel on a PC and then move it or copy to a Mac and be
able to use the file as it is without having to open the
file on the Mac with Excel and re save it in the same
formatting you just saved on the PC side????? while
trying to automate some processes I have found that when
you move the file to a Mac, it messes up the delimiters.
Am I missing a setting of some sort on the PC side that
will allow the Mac to use the file???? Any help
please.....
thanks in advance
 
Hard to tell without some detail...

What delimiters are you using? I go back and forth from Mac to PC
with CSV, tab- and pipe-delimited files all the time with no
problem. What do you mean by "messes up the delimiters"? Simply
transferring files to a Mac doesn't cause any conversions to take
place.

If you can open the file on the Mac to save it, what more is needed
to use it?
