So i was thinking i wonder if anyone has a d library for excel and behold there it was. however, it seems like d has grown since this was written.

I'm getting bunches of errors telling me that i can't override a function without the override keyword. which is not a big deal, however I seem to be missing libraries.

std.date; cannot be found :(
is this equivalent to std.datetime?

dcollections.LinkList; I found it but should i use It? is there not something in std.containers; that would replace it?

That will need some work before it works with modern D.

Last I used std.containers (which admittedly has been a few years), I developed a pretty deep distrust of DList. Personally, I would use multi_index, but you are probably better off sticking with dcollections. unless steve hasn't been maintaining it..

Also, I'm the author/porter of dxl. I think I quit maintaining it because I was waiting for the new io api, which I guess still hasn't happened. I don't really have time to work on it right now, but if you have questions, feel free to ask.

If  you save your file as csv that will save you some developement time.
