Hi All:

I am trying to debug a 5250 screen-scraper and its handling of the DDS ALARM
keyword. Their tech support people claim that they are interpreting the
'beep' command through the 5250 datastream. I am looking for enough details
to decipher a datastream dump and see what is causing the 'beep'.

I realize that this is really not directly related to TN5250, but I believe
there are some 5250 data stream gurus out there who might be able to help me
get started.

Additionally, Is the book "IBM 5250 Information Display System, Functions
Reference Manual", SA21-9247-6, available anywhere on-line?

Thanks in advance for your assistance and patience.
