Re: Client Access & V5R4 -- MIDRANGE-L

That "auto" update is part of the benefit, that the web Navigator is part of HTTP, so whenever you update that, you get the latest features, period. Very cool implementation philosophy.

Amazing enough, if you use some of the new features of the database
available in 7.2, the i Navigator part of IBM i Access for Windows picks
right up on that. I was pleasantly surprised. No bleeding edge service
pack on it or anything.

Most features that are part of 7.1 IBM i Access for Windows are available in newer products. For example, 5250 display and print emulation, Data Transfer, 5250 Console, Virtual Control Panel, and the ability to download spool files to your desktop are available as part of IBM i Access Client Solutions (5733-XJ1). Database drivers and providers such as ODBC, .Net and OLE DB are available as part of IBM i Access Client Solutions - Windows Application Package (5733-XJ1). Most of the features of System i® Navigator are available as part of its web based counterpart, IBM Navigator for i (SS1 option 3). For System i Navigator features that are not part of IBM Navigator for i, such as Run SQL Script, Visual Explain, and Management Central, the 7.1 version of System i Navigator is compatible with IBM i release 7.2.
