I need help with a php script that can save an excel file from a website as a ,csv file.
The excel file resides on one website but I need a php script on another server to get the file and saves it as a .csv file.

Can anyone give me the code to do this?

Try checking this thread: http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm? ... 395&page=1

Reading from *.xls files is extremely difficult.

If possible, enable exec on the server, and use openoffice calc to convert to CSV.
