Hello Sir James Edward Gray II,

Well, now I know who I am talking to :-) Respect! However, I checked all
the suggestions: Ruport, Ruby, CSV, fastercsv, prawn, extcvs.

All so beautiful. However, right now I have at least three lines in my
code
#!/usr/bin/ruby
require 'rubygems'
require 'ruport'

Hope I go in the right direction. Let you know when I have success (or
questions).

Greetings
