You could try tracing the 5250 data stream. Gene Gaunt published a
TRC5250 command some time ago (I think for iSeries News) that
provides a nicely formatted dump. It's not complete and has a few
defects but for the most part it works OK. You could use this to trap
the 5250 data stream and see what it shows.


I found the article on mcpressonline.com. Looks like it was published
in the old mag, and I haven't been able to find the code to download.
Maybe somebody here will have a copy.

Otherwise I found a reference to PC5250 offering a way to trace the
data stream, maybe I'll try that.


Ok, I've got the trace data from PC5250, can anybody point me in the
direction of a manual of the 5250 data stream or give me some other
tips so I can make heads or tails out of the data in the trace?

I think you want the 5494 Functions Reference. The last time I looked
at it, I weighed it up (heavvvvy!) and decided to do my job another way.
YMMV.

Cheers,
Terry.



Thanks!
