Hello, Dale. 

I'm not an AS/400 or MAPICS guru, but your "fast refresh CL" looks very
useful.  One question:  could it be modified to refresh from a disk
savefile instead of tape?  I run MAPICS Backup every night to the
default savefile library, then transfer the library to tape using the
normal AS/400 backup process later that night.  I would love to have a
CL script to instantly refresh my test environment from the production
environment, using the last savefile or one restored from tape.  We
don't have a MagStar, just the default 6386-001 QIC tape device

I've reviewed your script, think I understand it, pretty well
commented...had a bit more trouble deciphering the SMZ010B RPG program,
not sure if I needed to modify it, since our Production environment is
"OO" and our Test environment is "ZZ"

Michael,

I think a "user posting" website would be a great idea.  As you may
know, I keep a small one out there with some tips and sample source code
listings for stuff we've done with MAPICS that has really paid off
(Offline Shipping and a fast refresh CL for a test environment) - I'll
be putting some new stuff on it shortly for some helpful additions to
Purchasing (Vendor Acknowledgement reminders and a vendor item
expediting request form) that have saves us (literally) 3-4 man days per
week.  However, people don't know about it unless they ask me.  I think
an "official" web site would be very cool - especially if it was
organized by application.

If you want to look at mine, go to http://www.fft-inc.com/offship.html -
I'll bet you can't guess what was first out there!  :)

Konrad made a great suggestion, I think.  We batted it around in our
office and we would be glad to discuss hosting such a website (on our
AS/400, of course).   We collect a variety of tips/techniques that we
could use to "prime the pump".    Who else thinks this would be good?
