Re: How make CA window active?

There are a couple of places I suggest you look, mainly in the CA emulation 
support on the PC since there are several 3rd party outfits sometimes 
installed various places.

The window of AS/400 that shows up on the PC screen.
You need to make sure that it has all 25 lines, so that when the interactive 
program sends a message to the very bottom of the 400 screen, it is in fact 
seen by the person running this from CA.

The settings on the PC should be such that the user can in fact get to the 
Sys Tray & knows how to get to the Sys Tray if it is hidden.  Sometimes PCs 
are setup so they are right for an experienced user, then a less experienced 
person is saddled with using it.

On twinax, when a message is sent to a user, it does not matter if the user 
is on a different session of a multi-session work station, there is an 
indication on bottom of screen saying that a message is active & it is coded 
as to whether the message is for this session or for some other session.  
This message arrival is also audible, but that only works if I am physically 
at my work station when it arrives.

I guess what I would like in the state of art, is something on the Sys Tray 
that indicates ... a message is waiting for you in a particular application, 
and how many of a particular kind of application is currently open ... we 
would ask users to get the last number down to zero before they power off 
their work station.
