Why not just have them print to a suspended spool device, and send them the
spool file?
We have a process where we configure a printer (ldev 74) as a suspended
spooler, and on hp is a posix job that looks for this device in out.hpspool,
copies it to posix, ftps it to a PC running Bullet proof ftp surfer, in a
directory that reelects the user's logon and account (eg fred.sales), and
they wait a few minute after running report, download, do whatever they
need. Importing into xl is pretty easy really.

Subject: [HP3000-L] Email Reports as Excel Attachments from HP3K

I am continually deluged with users asking "can you send me that report in
Excel?".  Well, I can, but not without getting involved in converting it.
I believe I remember from a former life that there are products that will
run from the HP3000 to do just that.  Can someone suggest such a product or
download.  TIA.  --Tim
