Les,
Thanks for your assistance. I have applied the PTF and we are moving forward
once again.

I'll take a stab at this.  I had a similar problem running Peregrines
TrustedLink400 within MAPICS-XAr4 once I went to 5.1.  The solution was to
apply the latest PTF for MUI.  Call the MAPICS support line and ask them for
the MUI PTF for 5.1 and MAPICS 5.5.

Subject: accessing non-MAPICS files from within MAPICS


I am moving from a model 500 to a model 270; OS/400 version 5.1 and Mapics
5.5. I have restored the system (OS/400, applications and data from the 500
to the 270). All software licenses have been applied and I can execute all
of the applications. When I attempt to access ROBOT or a custom program with
nonMAPICS files from within a MAPICS environment I get these messages:

 Pointer not set for location referenced.
 File RBTOP1 in library ROBOTLIB member or device RBTOP1 not opened.

I can execute the same commands and options from outside of MAPICS and they
run just fine.

What am I missing here? The first problem we had was the routing entries
needed to be setup. Are there more items that were possibly not brought
forward? Is there a MAPICS manual that I can review for this?

Thanks in advance for your time and assistance.
