Eric,

Since someone mentioned RPG xTools' CPYTOCSV command, I thought I'd mention
that to solve the email-size issue, most of my customers simply pump the
file to the IFS and then send a URL/link to the file in the email. It has
worked great.

Steve,

I feel I should chime in with a word of caution....  Sending CSV or XLS
attachments in Email is a practice guaranteed to create grief.  Eventually,
someone will run a report for the last 15 fiscal years, and produce an
attachment too large to be delivered.  We are exploring alternatives to email
delivery for just this reason.

Michael, I think they want it to be hands - free. So it could be emailed
to them. Is there a easy way to do this?

I have users, go to

Tools --> Transfer Data from iSeries.   Then have them select a data
transfer request that is saved to their personal network drive. It's been
awhile, but if I remember correctly... the file doesn't even have to be
CSV, just a regular database file.

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
