Hi,
Are you typically working with xls files or xlsx files?

Thanks.

Wow.  When I try to do that, there's this enormous bunch of css code
and even some of what looks like javascript or possibly j-script in
the header of the document and each td and tr tag for cells and rows
has all this MSO class = garbage in it.  I wonder how your excel 2007
is configured that it made such a clean htm file for you.  I've
probably got all this company-wide theme/layout preconfiguration stuff
on my installation here at work.
