Re: TN5250 & Sub Files Can Do?

["Ron C. Colcernian" <rcc@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to Paul and Scott:

In our use of the AS/400 none of our applications use sub-files and
somebody
asked if sub-files would trip up TN5250.

The question was probably silly, however, I did not want to assume
anything,
by just answering yes.

Thanks.

Ron
