 * Hi,
 * I have just upgraded from VFB to VFB Pro on my website. Now, when I try to export
   the entries from my forms, I can’t open the file with Excel, whether I use .csv
   or .xls.
 * Using Excel on OSX, it says “HTML Import Errors – Problems came up with the following
   areas during load: Table”.
    Using Excel on PC, it says “The file you are trying
   to open <filename.xls> is in a different format than specified by the file extension.
 * Any idea what the problem might be? Thanks!

 * Hi, I’ve identified the bug.
 * The DateTime stampe in missing a T.
 * Currently output time as: 2012-12-28 16:33:45
 * IF the output were changed to: 2012-12-28T16:33:45
 * The file would load.

 * Hi Matthew. I’ve just purchased Visual Form Builder Pro in order to export my
   entries to .xls file. But I get xml error about datetime data cell (ex.: 2012-
   12-13 19:41:09). I changed timestamp at class-export.php as warptimer said above
   but that didn’t work 🙁 Urgent help please!
