Re: Getting a PC File to the AS/400 via Client Access (Windows 95 )

THANKS Eric !!!

I'm at a new company and they installed the 620 in November. They had done 
nothing with Client Access. I got
C/A loaded and set up and the first time I went through a full reboot/restart 
of the PC after loading a
Service Pack, it started downloading updates from the AS/400. I remember 
thinking THAT was strange since I
had just installed the (apparently outdated) Service Pack...

I'll hit their web site (or FTP) and get the update !

Thank you VERY much - I'm NOT going nuts <BG> !!!
