[ic] Product maint.

[Dan McFarland]

Make sure you save in in a TAB delimited form.  When you open it, there is a
second field for delimiter that defaults to ".  Remove it as well.  When you
save it, save it back as a tab delimited text file and choose the options to
save it as it is, not in excel format.

(I agree, Excel -well, Microsoft in general, are some pretty lame products
with very little flexibility)

Works for me! :)
