I have a need to have an RPG program create a xlsx.
I am reading Scott's PDF 'Excel Spreadsheets from RPG with POI.pdf' This
appears to be fairly old. Is there a newer document on how to install it?

There will be people here who can help you out with that; you've
definitely come to the right place.

Personally, I recommend installing Python and XlsxWriter instead, and
calling those from RPG if it really needs to involve RPG at all.
(Depending on how much you've already invested in that RPG program, it
may make more sense to reengineer it as a Python program.)

If you happen to already be familiar with JavaScript, then feel free
to substitute Node.js for Python in my suggestion. But if you do
decide to try Python, I can actively help with that.
