RE: Getting a file to excel

Steve,
I use a combination of the CVTPFXLS command which you can download for
free at http://www.geocities.com/~alex_nubla/tips.htm and Giovanni B.
Perotti's free MMAIL utility which you can get for free at
http://www.easy400.net/easy400p/maindown.html You'll have to register
with the site, but that's free too.

So far, this has worked very well for several months now. The only
caveat I have found is with the CVTPFXLS command in that it disables
logging. I asked the author about this and he said that he did this
because people were using the log file to reverse engineer his programs
and selling them. To get around this, I save the log level and restore
it after the command runs.  

If you have any questions or need some sample code, let me know.

subject: Getting a file to excel

HI What are some of the methods in taking a file that was 
generated by an RPG program and getting it to the user in an 
Excel Worksheet file?

It seems to be a straightforward file. Is there a preferred 
method. Any issues w/ v5.3 and the client access ?

Thanks,
Steve
