Excel indexer?

[kbsiva]

Hello Folks,
   Just like the PDF indexer do we have an indexer for Excel in CMOD? I know we can  use Generic indexing for Excel spread sheets which does not give me burst options. But outside of IBM is there a plugin that allows us to burst and index based on excel data? Do you know if monarch or any of these companies offer stuff like that?

Thanks
kbs

Well, I don't know such indexer, but surely something like that could be easily be programmed in Perl, python, ruby, java, ... (for example
!) :-) according that there are not too many macros :-D especially if it needs to index a field that is generated with a macro!

sincerely yours,
Alessandro

Perl has modules for reading Excel spreadsheets directly.  I'd highly recommend using them.
