XCEL Spreadsheet transfer -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.

When using Client Access can anyone tell me which is the best way to transfer an
XCEL spreadsheet and create a database file on the AS400. What should I save the
XCEL file as or can it be transferred directly as it is - if so what parameters
are needed in the details section.

Currently I save to ASCII text space delimited then transfer to a source file
which then gets a CPYF *CVTSRC performed. However I have spreadsheets whose
columns vary in width and have to adjust accordingly - I am sure there is an
easier way but no manuals on site - help!

Regards,

Chris
