Hello Everyone.
I am getting ready to start trying to implement a set up to allow Excel to read/write to various machine PLCs. I asked the IT tech to install MS Excel on the server where I have RSLinx Gateway installed and he said that he is not allowed to install MS Office directly onto a server and suggested that I use the web based MS Excel. Will it work like that? If not, can you think of another way so other people can access the excel file to update PLC data files?
