I am new at this (first time using Java routines from RPGLE) but I have a problem that I have not been able to find in the archives.

I am attempting to demonstrate the feasibility of using Java routines to create XLS spreadsheets to replace many of the reports that we deliver to the users as CSV now. I got Scott Klement's "Excel Spreadsheets from RPG" article with the source code (Thanks Scott). I am trying to compile and run the XLCRTDEMO program. When I run it, it is attempting to define a formula when the Java Machine throws this error

I saw an advice to avoid composing complex Excel save files, and instead generate the much simpler WKS files from Lotus 1-2-3 which Excel should read without any problems.

I have not tested it yet, but it makes sense to me. I'll report back next time we need to look at our "export to Excel"-solution.
