I want to convert the log files to xls. by bash script I converted it to csv, but I need to make some changes in some of them. please dont ask why xls and not csv. I need xls and this is to be a automated process. I am new to linux, bash and NULL in Perl. That would be nice if someone help me to convert to xls :-) this is my code in bash scripting: 
#!/bin/bash
NAME=evaluation_`date +%Y%m%d`

find /dir -name "*.log"  -mtime 0 -exec cat "{}" \; >> $NAME.log
grep -e word1 -e word2 $NAME.log | grep -v word3| awk '{n=split($11,P,
+"/");print $1 " " $2 ";" $3 ";" $9 ";" $11 ";" P[n]}' > $NAME.csv

sed -i '1iDate;Time;From;To;User' $NAME.csv

rm $NAME.log

echo "done."
