Save SAMP.ban to Excel - captainjohn - 22.07.2012

Is it possible to save samp.ban to an Excel file too?

So when I open Excel I can easily see who's been banned, their IP, the reason they was banned and who banned them with the date?
As it's pretty hard to just look at a massive block of text in samp.ban


Cheers.

An Excel file (aswel as Word, Powerpoint, ...) is basically an archive of several XML files and some other stuff, you can't just create an excel file (xls) by passing the extention. So no it's not possible.

I can't understand why you wanna open it in exel when you can use notepad. Simple and easy + it looks clean.

You obviously fail to read.
I clearly explained why I would want it in Excel.

Can you show me how an extract of that banfile looks like? never took a look and im on vacation atm.

You can convert everything into an excel table, some things just are a bit more complicated.

#Addendum#:
My first step would be to convert the .ban file into a .txt file. Shouldn't make a difference.
Then you can import it into Excel I guess, you just need to put in the right delimiters (I hope it's called like that, not sure), the characters that "cut" your lines and coloumns.
