mattwray Not sure what type of emulator you're looking for, but if it's 3270, 5250, or plain old telnet, then Mocha seems to be a good solution. www.mochasoft.dk (I'm not affiliated, but I do like their products...) Jamie

Thomas Thanks - we were leaning towards a "no-scroll" solution for exactly those reasons. I take from your explanation that you went with the 400 emulation route, rather than the PC Software interface. What kind of handheld H/W and emulation S/W did you use ? Jamie

Will do - Thanks

Not sure if this is the right spot for this, but wanted another programmers perspective... We're implementing bar-coding in our warehouse. We will be getting some WiFi barcode readers. There are 3 basic types : PocketPC based, PalmOS based, and proprietory OS. I run 5250 emulation on my...

It's been a while since I used it, but it works something like this : Step One : System takes a snapshot, or sets a checkpoint, or whatever analogy suits you, and sets up temp journals to hold data being written to files during save. (This can be a cycle-eating process, but is usually pretty...

I'm using the CA400 drivers.

You guys have been so helpful so far, I thought I'd press my luck and ask one more thing... Thanks to your advice, my sql does work. It's slow, but I'm looking at iSeriesCodePoet's link for optimization tips... However, when I run the SQL live in the shipper application, I'm pulling back...

File Advice : Episode 2 (barely RPG related, but an extension of yesterdays question) Ran into a slight snag - this'd be so easy on the 400, but I'm unsure how to do it in SQL - the author(s) of our ERP pkg decided to put the postal code (equiv to US ZIP) in 2 5-digit fields, so our 6 digit...

That's it - I was forgetting the F1, F2 alias thingy Thanks muchly Jamie

iSeriesCodePoet: ...doing a bit more research after my last post, I was leaning in the sql direction as well... I need to join 2 files to begin with - it'd be easier for me to draw a picture... Data "trigger" (coming from scanned barcode) Order# (not a 400 trigger, just the datum...

I need to create an ODBC link to some shipping software, and have to use the data from 4 or 5 different physical files on the 400. I also have to update several of the fields - possibly in more than one PF. My idea is to create an LF Join file on the 400 rather than a complicated SQL statement...

hee hee, did you say "Train users" ?

We're possibly the last ones to notice, but we've just discovered that if you have the AutoSave plugin activated, that every time your sheet is saved, it is then impossible to do an UNDO on something from befor3e the save. We've played with the AutoSave time, and have verified this. Granted...

Using Win XP Pro and OE 6... No "ReWrap" button exists, and other programs on same PC print fine to all printers... Also, another PC (XPPro +OE6) prints email fine with same setup options. Jamie

It looks like you are trying to print a 200 column line on an 80 column page... I've looked thru the options to see if there is a Word Wrap or something similar, but no luck. Havi missed a setting - it wasn't always like this, and if I fwd the mauk to someone in the office to print for me it...
