Re: iSeries logon issue with Win10

["Phil Catlin (Formica)" <phil.catlin@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

One other possibility..

In Access Client Solutions (and the older Ops Navigator) one of the connection configurations you can set for the system is "Prompt for user name and password every time".  The other choice that I use is "Use default user name to prompt once for each system".  That prompts me once each time I login to windows and start a new session.

In Access Client Solutions, go to the "Management" section, select "System configuration", then select the desired IBMi system,  choose the Edit button at the bottom, then the "Connection" tab to get to that set of configuration items.

Regards,
--Phil

Hope you are using the same Excel versions on both PCs. Also, if you use multiple users to login to your Windows 10 PC, make sure you have installed the IBMi Access components either for all users or with the same user id that works with Excel; UAC is much more stringent in Windows 10.

The difference now is that when I run queries using my excel spreadsheet the iSeries logon window pops up (even if I have logged on prior) and requires me to login again.  Most times it says that my password is incorrect (even though it is correct).  Then I have to close out of all BPCS sessions, and then try to use my spreadsheet.
