All --

Two years ago, I wrote a really cool utility that allowed any AS/400 job to
start a program on a PC.

It did more than that: you could build a file on the PC, send messages ... all
kinds of cool stuff. You could even create a .BAT file and then execute it. All
by using an AS/400 command.

I wrote it in VB 3.0, using the API's for (then) PC Support.

Now it's almost 1998. The desktop OS is 32-bit Windows. The protocol du jour is
TCP/IP.

If I can learn how to talk to an AS/400 program via TCP/IP, I plan to update my
utility and make it available on my web page.

Peace,
