RE: Accessing AS/400 data with Excel

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

If they screw it up, they screw it up.  It's currently native Excel now.
When I port the bugger to the 400 I'm going to journal it.

CA/400 has an ODBC driver...Be very careful what you allow users to
do...Like they modify the Excel sheet and then update the 400 wiping out
the original file...

I thought there was an Excel data addin as part of CA. But it might be a
for-pay option, part of Data Transfer. Is that still there? Is it download
only?
