Uummm. I was thinking they are actually two different products.
Because under "iSeries Access for Windows" section, it says: Support for
Excel 95 & 98 will be dropped. Under the "Data Transfer from iSeries
and Data Transfer to iSeries graphical user interfaces" section, it says
You will still be able to transfer data to and from Excel 95 and Excel
98

IBM keeps changing the name of the computer to insure that it will never
have any recognition in the market place. We've had the same name for
the last two years, so I suspect that we will get another new one in
about a month or six weeks. How do you spell *BRAINDEAD?

Can somebody enlight me on paragraph stated in IBM doc below? What is
the different between the term "iSeries Access for Windows" and "Data
Transfer from iSeries and Data Transfer to iSeries graphical user
interfaces"?
<From IBM doc>
Data Transfer support for Microsoft Excel 95 and Microsoft Excel 98 will
change in the future
iSeries Access for Windows Data Transfer provides a Microsoft Excel
Add-in that lets you transfer data to and from an open Excel worksheet.
In a future release of iSeries Access for Windows, the Data Transfer
Excel Add-in will be rewritten to use a more robust Excel interface.
This interface is not available in Microsoft Excel 95 and Microsoft
Excel 98. Support for those versions of Excel will therefore be dropped
from the Add-in. This change will not affect the Data Transfer from
iSeries and Data Transfer to iSeries graphical user interfaces. You will
still be able to transfer data to and from Excel 95 and Excel 98
documents using that interface.
