Having had a play with this, I find I can't get Excel to write back to the
iSeries. Does anyone know how to do this - the iSeries Access ODBC driver
certainly seems to support more than just read-only.

Anyone got much experience in using Excel and an ODBC connection to update
data on the iSeries? We have exit point software, so I can control write
access at file level, but I am interested in any real-world comments. Please
email if you need more info, or post your experiences here.

Thanks

Guy
