Re: Excel Integration

You don't need to know much about Java to use the POI/HSSF classes from 
RPG. I've written a series of articles that provide enough information to 
get started.  It's worth reading, at any rate.

If you'd prefer to buy something, there are vendors offering this type of 
product.  I've tested iExcelGen from Goering, it seemed to work, though I 
didn't use it in production since I went the POI/HSSF route.

There are other vendors as well, though I haven't tried them.  You might 
try searching Google
