I am not an excel data person (rpg programmer by trade), and have been
asked to see if I can come up with a solution for a problem we have.

I have an excel spreadsheet, that contains 5 columns, I need to use the
first 4 columns as keys to an file on the iSeries and fill the 5th column
with a field from that file. I would prefer that the fifth column be a
user defined function if possible. So in column E, we would code the
following

=get400data(a1,b1,c1,d1)

and it will retrieve the record from the system and populate column E with
the field.

I know this has to be possible, I have searched and can not make heads or
tails of what I find. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Mike
