EXAMPLE 1: Clear Formats within a Specific Range Of Cells

To apply clear the formatting of a specific range of cells in "C:\ExcelFiles\Summary.XLS" the following syntax would be used:

ConvertXLS.EXE /S"C:\ExcelFiles\Summary.XLS" /T"C:\ExcelFiles\Summary.XLS" /P112 /1 1 /2"Sheet1" /3 A19:F19,Z12

The /S and /T switches specify input and output workbook respectively, which in this case is the same workbook. You can optionally keep the input file unchanged by specifying a different name or path for the output file.
