Hi Surinder,

Thanks for the link but the problem mentioned in the above link is different from the one I am facing.

I am getting the complete data but the only thing is whnever i open that file it gives the msg "The file is not in recognizable format..." and whn i click 'OK' I could see the data in it.

Could u pls tell how can we get rid of that error?
