Ethernet packet capture wouldn't help me, no.  A trace file generated
by tn5250 would be more useful, but not as useful as actual DDS would
be.

To generate a trace file, do something similar to this:

        tn5250 trace=/path/to/somefile.txt as400.example.com

DDS is Data Description Specifications.  It's the language that AS/400
programmers use to create screens (as well as files and sometimes reports)

If you were to send me the DDS, I could create a screen that has the same
problem on my AS/400, and I could see what's happening.
