RE: Prompting of CL commands -- CODE400-L

But I want my cake and to eat it too.  I thought at least part of the reason
for CODE/400 (actually I am using WDSc) is to move development off of the
iSeries.  Why should I have to tie up an interactive session and continually
switch back and forth?  It doesn't make any sense and sure doesn't sound
very efficient.

I'm looking for the CL GUI prompting option you mentioned Vern but I haven't
been able to find it yet.  If I understand you correctly, I need to start
the CODE editor without a source member.  Because I choose the editor when
opening a source member from WDSc it always contains a source member.  I
guess I need to figure out how to start CODE outside of WDSc.

Buck, that is not the Autoconnect server - you had to start one manually
;-)

Actually, I prefer the STRCODE prompting - it is much faster. Oh - but
pretty is better, right? <g>
