Excel linked to ODBC
Posted on 2011-03-10
Is it possible to have a spread sheet linked via a ODBC to the AS400's DB2?
Then when I press a refresh Button (a macro to fire off the odbc connection and update records)
the spreed sheet connects the link and pulls the data in.
I know I will have to map the feilds somehow too...
