you should be able to find something that will read the excel and output XML. it might even use the same POI-HSSF or XSSF routines you where going to use in RPG.

I suspect a little "googling" will get you something.

Hi folks,
I recently posted to the Midrange and RPG list, about the tools available for reading from an Excel file using the Java classes from POI-HSSF or XSSF.

So now I need either auto-conversion Windows command or they'll have to open, and save-as to a share directory on the IFS. Function probably going away in a few months anyway. No wonder they figure I might not last.

Thanks
Alan
