Re: Performance when using POI to create an excel

 Thorbjorn,
 Thanks for the reply. I finally managed to get it to at least do
 something by keying it in like so:
 
 SYSTEM "CRTJVAPGM 'poi-2.5.1-final-20040804.jar' OPTIMIZE(40)"
 
 When it gets finished, I will be able to test my program and see if
 this
 will help the preformance. 
 
 Thanks,
 
 Terry Anderson
 
p.s.

Sorry for the double post, I forgot to change the subject line on the
first one.
