As you know, some time ago Scott Klement released a service program, named XLPARSER4,
that allows to read an Excel spreadsheet by using a combination of RPG and Java.
One year ago (March 2009), I announced an open-source free RPG utility, named XLPARSE,
a wrapper around the Scott's utility, that makes it easy to convert an Excel spreadsheet
to a database file in QTEMP and then subsequently read that file in your programs.
Today I'm announcing a new tool, within XLPARSE: command XLSTABLE. It simply transforms
an Excel spreadsheet to a physical file, that you can subsequently process with your programs.
In other words, you can now totally forget about the EXCEL spreadsheet and process it as if it were
a database file. Of course, in this way you can process an Excel spreadsheet using your favorite
programming language, RPG III or IV, COBOL, C, ... what you have.
