Today i am working on as400 macro, and i have a requirement to run the same macro for 3000+ records one by one. The excel sheet is containing those 3000+ lines in A column as a number format. Each time I need to run the macro and before that I need to change the AS400 macro code with the value from A column of the excel.
Below is the code of the AS400 Macro.
[PCOMM SCRIPT HEADER]
LANGUAGE=VBSCRIPT
DESCRIPTION=
[PCOMM SCRIPT SOURCE]
OPTION EXPLICIT
autECLSession.SetConnectionByName(ThisSessionName)
REM This line calls the macro subroutine
subSub1_
sub subSub1_()
autECLSession.autECLOIA.WaitForAppAvailable
autECLSession.autECLOIA.WaitForInputReady
autECLSession.autECLPS.SendKeys "dc74945"

autECLSession.autECLPS.SendKeys "nnn"
autECLSession.autECLOIA.WaitForInputReady
autECLSession.autECLPS.SendKeys "[tab]"
autECLSession.autECLOIA.WaitForInputReady
autECLSession.autECLPS.SendKeys "n"
autECLSession.autECLOIA.WaitForInputReady
autECLSession.autECLPS.SendKeys "[enter]"
end sub
Now each time I need to change the below line by taking input from excel.
autECLSession.autECLPS.SendKeys "dc74945"
Excel contains data in below format:
ID Name
AC71182 Andrew Cain
AC74398 Adam Cadman
AD39903 Alisha Davies (CARDIFF)
AC74952 Abby Clarke
AD54561 Alison Duffield
AD59529 Ann Rose Davies
AD60488 Alex Delmonte C'Diff COMBO
What I am looking for is an AS400 macro to read one by one cell from Column A in excel (containing ID) and then run the above macro for that ID by changing the value in the above mentioned line.
I searched a lot, but never find an easy way to do so by using AS400 Macro. I got VBA macro to do such things, but I need AS400 Macro. So requesting your help if you can.
Thanks, Maitreya
