Hi Carl,

On the S/38 the RJE product was also a separately licensed program. I
think it was called Communications Utilities (CM1). You needed it for
true RJE device support (local punch, etc.). You didn't need it to do
2780/3780 BSC or SNA LU2 communications. That support was available in
ICF files with the base OS.

The same is true for the AS/400 today.

If all you need to do is upload or download a file, you can pretty much
do this with native BSC support using an ICF file and RPG program. If
the connection is SNA it gets a lot more complex, but is do-able. If
they are using SNA I would be inclined to go get the true RJE support
for the AS/400 and use that. 

HTH,
Patrick
