[comp.soft-sys.andrew] Fwd: can TABLES files be saved in a form usable by Lotus?

wdc@ATHENA.MIT.EDU (Bill Cattey) (01/06/90)

This question came up locally at MIT.  I wanted to forward this to the
larger group.

Is there anyone out there working on interoperability between table and
other spreadsheets?  Is there someone who could comment on what it would
take to teach table to produce another file format?

Is there a way to save them or export them to any of the following:
	comma-delimited ascii
	DIF
	WKS or WK1
or anything that can be then ftp'd to a pc and read into Lotus 2.0?

It would obviously help Andrew's acceptance here at the Lab if this were
true.  



Thanks in advance!
