Hi John

XML-INTO is for reading from an XML file or variable, not for generating XML. I've recently done something where I read an XML file from an application, then wrote one out to a different platform. Used CGIDEV2 to write out the XML - now I have to look at what Jon Paris mentioned - sigh!!

Good luck - hope your company isn't leaving the i completely.

I think you are right John and a coworker believes it can be done
using xml-into? and data structures, which I am looking into.

Unfortunately, the way he phrased it ("they said it had to be an excel
'.xml' file") suggests they are really looking for something that ends
with .xml, which in turn suggests the Excel 2003 XML format. It's not
a zipped, multipart file like .xlsx, but just a single .xml file.
Broche, I used Klements hssfr4 and created the excel spreadsheet (.xlsx)
and sent to them, that's when I found out they want the .xml extension file.

Scott Klement's port of poi will create .XLSX files.
Thanks for all help. Background: All this is about moving away from
JD Edwards on the iSeries, which is very integrated to our ERP, to a cloud?
product called Workday, for HR, Payroll, etc. Lots of fun in store.
