Vuong --

You may be able to link your Excel spreadsheet to your AS/400 data by simply
writing an RPG program!

Say gang ... did you know that? Did you know that it is possible -- WITHOUT
Client Access -- to put data from your AS/400 right into an Excel spreadsheet
by using an RPG/ILE program?

Peace,
