Method for exporting large files from Webdev to Excel

Hello all,
Has anyone had any experience exporting large files (more than 256 columns) to be opened with the later versions of Excel (2007)? Earlier versions were not capable of exceeding this limit, but the later .xmls files, which can, do not seem to be supported in Webdev 12.
One option I am aware of would be to use TableToText and create a .csv file, but this does not operate as cleanly as I would like in terms of shelling to excel. I also haven't had much luck with using xml for this purpose.
Does anyone have experience with these types of exports with Webdev that wouldn't care to share?
I appreciate any input.
Regards,
-Marc

Hello again,
FYI- the workaround in this case was to use TableToText to create a .txt file, then the MIME type for "application/unknown" so as not to cause any conflicts in Excel. This allows files with more thnan 256 columns to be opened seamlessly in Excel 12.
