Here is something I did for one of our managers that didn't cost
anything but a little of my time  and kept him happy.  We use Client
Access Express to connect all of our users.  

I run a query on the job scheduler each night that produces a file on
the 400 with the information he wants.  On his pc I created an XLS that
uses the Client Access ODBC driver (read only) to access this file and
update it every time he opens the spreadsheet.  Optionally you can have
it update only when he clicks on the refresh button.

Does anyone know of any packages out there that will allow you to
create
XLS files from PF's?  CSV won't work here, the user absolutely,
positively
will not accept anything but an honest-to-god XLS file.  And we want
to
generate and e-mail the XLS file with no user intervention, so the
package
would need a command interface.

I know about SEQUEL, but my boss thinks it's too pricey.  I'm working
on
learning Java, so I once I feel comfortable with it, I suppose I could
use
HSSF, but I'm going to scare people if I make them call Java programs
from
RPG.
