RE: Read from a db2 file, populate an excel .xml ifs file using rpg

Thanks for the plethora of info John.

The template they gave me had 40 rows or so of test data in it.
I opened it up in excel and deleted the data rows and saved that
for my template (after noting the structure of the <row></row> tags.

I got it to populate using cgidev2. The first try gave me an
error, I found the error log and it said that the parent <Table> element
had an expandedRowCount attribute that had to match the total rows
in my worksheet (something to that effect), so I put a placeholder there
and using cgidev2, and populated it correctly and it opened fine in excel.

Anyway, you said they gave you a template. I don't know if this means you don't have
to generate from scratch, but rather just find and populate slots in the template; or
if by "template" you meant more like "example" to just give you an idea, and you still
have to generate from scratch.
