Jeff,

In this instance, I think your best bet is to create a series of views that 
join the data together is formats that meet their requirements.  This way, you 
can ensure that they get exactly what they need (and only what the need), and 
make their access to this data read-only, so that they can't push data back 
into the iSeries.  

hth,
Eric

Subject: Download to EXCEL from Relational DB


I have a client that would like to be able to download data from their iSeries 
to an EXCEL file.
The problem is that the data files are setup in a "relational" manner, not a 
flat file.
Is there any PC product that will allow me to define the relationship between 
the files but have that complexity hidden from the end user?
 
Thanks,
