RE: TCP-IP communication between AS/400 and PC

Hi Don!
  I had good experience with that level of Code, but it was quite a while
ago.  I don't remember all of the changes from that time 'til now, but there
have been a bunch, especially in the communications arena.    When I used
STRCODE (you don't have to any more) I specified the IP address of my PC and
not a name.    The oldest AS/400 I can find is at V4R2, and it has CMNTYPE
and room for the IP address if I press F9.  Maybe you haven't got the right
PTFs loaded on the 400.  If I remember, there were some separate ones just
for Code that may not have gone out on a cume.

If you can't get the communications working but want to try the editor
anyway, FTP some source to the PC and open it with Windows Explorer.  In
fact, if you map a drive to your source you can use Explorer to drag/drop
the source from your PC to the 400.
