Can't connect to Attachmate Terminal Control in Access VBA

Can't connect to Attachmate Terminal Control in Access VBA

Can't connect to Attachmate Terminal Control in Access VBA

(OP)
Hello all,

First post here! I tried looking for solutions here in the archives but found nothing.

For the past months I have been writing VBA Access applications in combination with the Extra! teminal. This was always doen opening up an external Extra! Terminal window. No problems there.

But I discovered today that you can also open up a Attachmate Extra!terminal in a form in Access. I succesfully linked it up with the AS400 system and was over the moon and excited about the possibilities! But... I can't get my code to activate the screen.
I tried CreateObject("EXTRA.System") but that opens an external terminal session. How do I connect to the embedded session in a form?

Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Benoize
