RE: CSV File Creation to include Excel formula

Hello,

Looks ok in Notepad.

Don't know if there is formatting that Notepad doesn't display.

Thanks,

Alan

Have you opened your CPYTOSTMF output in Notepad? Does it look correct?

Subject: CSV File Creation to include Excel formula

Hello,

Iam creating a csv file in the IFS.

Customer has told us that for certain cells, if blank must have =("")
entered.

This value has been entered but Excel treats it as a string and not a
formula.

Excel will recognise this formula when creating a file on the PC using
Notepad.

Is this related to the codepage I am specifying?

CPYTOSTMF FROMMBR(&INFPS) TOSTMF(&OUTFPS) STMFOPT(*REPLACE)
STMFCODPAG(1252)

Regards,

Alan Starkey
