Re: Excel - Rpg -- RPG400-L

It's cool Nick, I have now just completed creating the binding directory
and service pgm's etc. from the new 2006 HSSF article so let's see if I
manage to get it working, I'm not that skilled (meaning no skill) in
Java so I have to use the HSSF methods which I am just beginning to
learn about and is working great so far. Will keep you posted though ;)

I apologize not reading your original post a little better. I based my
reply on how I create spreadsheets. I use a Java program written by
Michael Ryan with a few tweaks by me to do my builds. I found this
solution to be significantly faster than the HSSF methods. Granted, I
was
using the same 2004 article that you mentioned.

Thanks Nick but I don't think that this helps much :(

I would suggest the following. Make a copy of the spreadsheet with

the

orientation set to landscape. Open both of the stpreadsheets with an
application like Wordpad or Notepad so you can see the actual coding
behind the scenes. You should be able to find the coding that sets

the

orientation.

Hi,

I have been assigned a project to create an Excel Spreadsheet using
RPG, I have just finished my first RPGLE program to write directly

an

Excel Spreadsheet guided by the fantastic articles by Scott Klement

and

Zach's answer to the binding directory mystery both of which are

listed

below, I am quite pleased that everything works! However-I am

having

a

problem when I print the spreadsheet, is there a way to default the
print setup with regards to "Orientation Landscape" ; "Scaling

Adjust

to

81%" ; "Paper Size A4(210x297mm)" "Top Left and Right Margins to 0"

and

"Print Gridlines" from my RPGLE or any other tool that can be

called

from my RPGLE?
I do know of an Active X Control package that runs in SQL?

You're probably missing a binding directory.

Subject: Excel - Rpg

Hello,

I am in the process of trying to write and read Excel Spreadsheets
from
an RPG program using Java objects. I have followed the procedures
posted
in the article:
iSeries Network Publication
http://www.iseriesnetwork.com
Home of iSeries NEWS Magazine
Editor: Scott Klement
Issue 182
September 16, 2004
I have downloaded the poi files, and source examples, however -

when

I

try to compile the RPG - it ends abnormally but with the following
messages in my spool file:
Message Totals:
Information (00) . . . . . . : 448
Warning (10) . . . . . . . : 0
Error (20) . . . . . . . : 0
Severe Error (30+) . . . . .. : 0

Am I missing something? I have copied and pasted the poi files in

the

path specified using the iSeries Navigator - is this correct and

maybe

the cause of the problem? Does the RPG need a different compiler?
PLEASE
HELP

Thanks
