I'm not seeing how any of this gets my column widths saved. Is there a
clue in there somewhere?

Vern,
Matt wanted me to check on the following items while in New Orleans. What
do you think about his questions? Matt's list:

1. Now that IBM I Navigator is deprecated. What are people using as
alternatives? The current Web interface is extremely lacking in usability.

a. Are we supposed to buy a third party?

b. The current web navigator is slow and not a well designed user
interface. If they tell you the web GUI is the way they are going, then ask
them to create two tables with a foreign key between them with the web
interface and compare it to the IBM I Navigator and watch how long it takes
in each.

2. Ask if IBM will be adding a BIT or Boolean data type to the database
like Oracle, MySQL, and Microsoft SQL has

a. This is important because automatic conversion from "Y" or "N"
doesn't happen in any language that I know of, but 0 and 1 do.


Kind regards,
Phil

Hi Justin

As a member of CAAC, I'm sometimes in on discussions about what IBM is
doing with Navigator - we get some requirements on this, and it's helpful
if they are focused on one aspect of navigator is needed.

IBM HAVE stated strongly that they are going to get everything in the web
Navigator that needs to be. And they ARE actively working on that.

So you could put in requrements at requirements.common.org<
http://requirements.common.org> or go to the new rfe site that can be
used now instead of DCRs - if you or anyone DOES put in RFEs - remember,
that's a request for enhancements, not PMRs - make an RFE for each item -
not a list of 15 items - or even 3 items!

This will help IBM focus on what to do even more than they are now, I
think - they have asked what specific things we want in there.

Cheers
Vern

I agree that what iACS includes is superior, but System I Navigator still

And as stated MANY times the old thick client iSeries Access is not going
to be supported. It is replaced by Access Client Solutions which is vastly
superior in most ways. I'll grant the Run SQL statements might need a
little help and the Index Advisor is not done yet but there are
alternatives.

So IBM has supported Windows 10 all along. Maybe not in the versions you
would prefer.
