Re: iSeries Acces File Transfer

Vernon,

Are you sure about this? I have always thought that the ability to download 
files from the iSeries to an EXCEL spreadsheet was free of charge. It just came 
with the Client Access CD, along the ODBC client.

He was asking about the iSeries Access download addin for Excel, 
which is an extra cost option - your solution is the Microsoft MS 
Query, which is usually not installed as a part of MS Office but can 
be. Nice thing about MS Query is, it does not cost extra.
