[ic] HTML code comments

[interchange-users@icdevgroup.org]

Thanks, DB! 

Actually, I have no problem saving the Excel file as tab-delimited when there are no HTML comments. However, when I add them to the table, for some reason it really messes it up, no matter how I try to save it. I even tried to use iframes to point to pages with the comments, but that did not work either (IC does not support iframes?)...

Any ideas?

There may be ways to get excel to work, but I know of 2 solutions that work.

Import the data into M$ Access then export from there as tab-delimited 
(with no text qualifier). Import that into IC. Or use 
OpenOffice/Straoffice to export tab-delimited text.
