Re: connection error (retrieveRecordFormat?)

Thanks, David - I appreciate your time and help.
QUSER is enabled and we submit other jobs with the it without problems.
Unfortunately, I do not have a PC on the AS400's side of the firewall. 
However, I do not see any blocked traffic in the firewall log, either.  I
suppose I could try temporarily opening a gaping hole in the firewall
between the AS400 and my PC to try to eliminate it as an issue....I just
got an ok for that...I will post the results as soon as I test it.
