The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

AS400 - MS Excel Data Refresh option prompts  User Name & Password Every time

Asked by Bsidmis in Programming for iSeries / AS400, Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software, Spreadsheet Software

Tags: , , , ,

Dear Experts Exchange Team,

I have a critical problem in AS400 data fetch query in MS Excel (Petch SP2 loaded).

I have created several Excel Sheets (in MS Office 2003) for fetching the data from AS400 using MSOffice Query option under Data-->> Refresh Menu.
Those excel sheets are using by so many different users on their desktops.
I have the following problems/doubts in those excel sheets.

(1) Same Excel sheet which is created on my PC and forwarded to the 2 different users are behaving differently like in My PC while doing Data-Refresh, doesn't prompt for user/password but on different PC it prompts.
Even if i understand that my user name and password has save somewhere in my PC then another Excel sheet which is created on different machine and forwarded to me and then when i try to do Data-Refresh on this sheet it is prompting the User/Password, which indicates that the User/Password saves somewhere may be in Excel sheet also .
I have tried several ways to resolve the issue, but still the problem persists.

(2) How i can set the Default User in the Excel Sheet.

I have tried with so many options like change the default user in Operation navigator, change the REGEDIT also, and so on.

But still i didn't get any solution on the above problem. I have created the excel sheets where the Excel sheet fetch the data almost 20 to 30 times. therefore the user has to supply the user/password 20-30 times which is radiculous.

Please let us know what is the mystery behind it.
