Hmmmm, I faintly remember something like that, but not this phrase "SW EXCEL", ... but Question (After strangling/shaking Uncle G. O. Ogle): Are you thinking of "Software withdrawal: IBM Cognos Analysis for Microsoft Excel, TM1, Express, Insight and Performance Management Suite - Some replacements available" in this URL http://www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/ShowDoc.wss?docURL=/common/ssi/rep_ca/6/899/ENUSLP17-0126/index.html&request_locale=en (watch that wrrrrrrrap!) (one program number about that Cognos Excel is 5724-W22) ... or (somewhat older), "Software withdrawal: IBM zEnterprise BladeCenter Extension selected part numbers" in this URL http://www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/printableversion.wss?docURL=/common/ssi/rep_ca/0/877/ENUSZP16-0090/index.html&request_locale=en ? (end question) Disclaimer: I never ever worked with these things at all.
