Re: Retrieving a system value

BTW, you can use the AboutToolbox utility
(ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/as400/products/javatoolbox/AboutToolbox/) to
find out which version of the toolbox/JTOpen you're using.

This was added as part of JTOpen 2.01 back in December of 2000.  What
version of JTOpen are you using?

If you're not sure, you might want to download the latest release at
http://oss.software.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/jt400/downloads.ht

I'm pretty sure that this will work in current releases of JTOpen.
