subject: AS/400 print to PC for almost free

<snip>

I plan to look into Adobe Acrobat PDF onto my home PC to create the
AS/400
reports, or perhaps get some equivalent results shareware onto my
home
PC. My home PC is Windows 98 which now talks to the work 400 via VPN
over
what is laughingly called "high speed" Internet connection.


I would look into creating the PDF on the as400. There are free pdf creating pgms available (in RPG) - probably find it in the archives or google. The way they work is take a spool file and copy it as a constant into PDF.

Then either e-mail it or put it on the ifs or other network drive and let the users have access to that directory.
