Re: EDI Translator wanted

We've been doing EDI with the 400 for years.  Started out on the S/36.  Been 
using the same package.  ACS/Premenos/Harbinger.  I didn't realize they were 
all that expensive.  They weren't trying to sell you their GUI package were 
they?  For a batch process like EDI I see that as a zero value add.  I like 
their software and the documentation is great!  Support is pretty good also.  
They are trying to sell training now that Harbinger owns them.  Unless you 
can't read I don't see a use for it.

Subject:        EDI Translator wanted

Can anyone make a recommendation for a low cost EDI translator?

The high prices of AS/400 translator's from Premenos and Sterling are
causing us to look elsewhere.

Customer needs to do 856 & 210 transactions right now, possible many more
transactions soon.

We would like to have a PC act as an "EDI Server" where we could put our
flat files into a network directory or shared folder, have the PC wake up,
translate it, and stick the translated file back out on the network.

Then our AS/400 could send the file on its way.
