I don't know about .BIN or .DAT files, but if what you really want is an
ADIF file, the easiest way is to use Excel to format the data directly into
ADIF format, one field per column, and then export the file as a
tab-delimited text file.
The basic idea is explained at <http://www.storm.ca/~ve3iay/spreadsh.html> ,
and in more detail (and more readably) at
<http://www.g6csy.net/ham/adif.html> .
