Questions are sort of vague, but I'll give it a try:

1. Don't know
2. Instantiation in OO world equals object creation time (memory
allocation and class variable initialization). In reports, it probably
means recreating a new report object.
3. Another instance of the report - again OO terminology, you have a
report class (sort of a template), but that is just conceptual (i.e.
does not exist on the system) until you actually create an object
(allocate memory). You can create as many objects as you want from the
same class (template). Hence, another instance means another report
object (with separate memory and separately initialized variables).
4. Dataset implies SQL result set on the as400.  Server side stored
procedure can create it, open it and leave it opened. PC side reporting
tool then can access that result set and treat it as a physical file -
SQL table.
5. Good PC reporting tool will probably to this for you automatically,
otherwise just use standard ODBC functions to access the opened SQL
result set.

Subject: Questions from the other world


Can anyone explain some of these concepts from VB/.net/C++ etc...
Are any of these explainable in AS/400 terms? 
1. push-pull method
2. Instantiated directly
3. another instance of the report (do they mean diff version number?)
4. have a dataset generated from a stored proc and programmatically set
it at run time).  
5. Convert dataset to datatable.
>From a green screen diehard,
Rob
