Al,

If you are wanting to scan the documents yourself and store them and have
retrieval capabilities along with foldering and search capabilities on the
400,  IBMs product is 5769VI1, IBM ImagePlus VisualInfo for AS/400.  To scan
and export to the 400, the two top vendors that have tight integration to
the AS/400 are Input Accel and Kofax, we use Input Accel, www.inputsw.com,
marketing person is Carter, (817) 467-3203.  The price of production
scanners have greatly dropped during the past year, example a 90ppm Fujitsu
has a list of $21,000.  A year ago this type of scanner from Kodak was 60K.
Try this scanner vendor, Cranel 800-288-3475x4236, contact Sweet.   If you
need additional info on other Content Management areas I have a list of
products & vendors that are AS/400 based or integrate to the 400.

We are not now doing Scanning & Image apps, but it is something I have been 
pushing because we have several million sets of customer item documents ... 
blueprints, simpler prints, product masters, quotes, and related stuff, and
I 
have had a periodic interest in trying to stay current with choices.

How would we get millions of documents into the system?
Rent time on equipment at sites that normally handle large volumes, as 
opposed to temporary renting or leasing of equipment we won't be using for 
the long term.

The local AS/400 user group for Evansville Indiana will have a presentation 
in April on the state-of-art of image processing on the 400 & it will be 
presented by IBM so perhaps you could seek IBM to do the same thing at the 
user group in closest proximity to your geography.
