We all agree that training new people on the AS/400 is important, it's just that this isn't really the place to do it. > >Try some of these links. Some require (free) registration.

I did some AS/400 homework and it did me little good and I do not know any AS/400 users' groups or personally and do know to turn to for AS/400 advises or leads. Moreover, IBM do have a knowledge base but their knowledge base is somewhat small and limited and did not have answers to my questions. In order for anyone to ask IBM questions, correct me if I am wrong, you must be an IBM's customers (??) I, personally appreciate everyone for sharing and giving their thoughts on the AS/400. I just begin to use and post messages on user group since I have this new job, which requires me to learn how to communicate with AS/400. If anyone, not mind me asking AS/400 questions when I really, really stuck, please e-mail me at vuongtn@hotmail.com I appreciate your guidances and knowledges.
