From: Hewitt, Rory <rory.hewitt@xxxxxx> > I was referring to FAST/400 when I said "After all, if I'm not 'hacking' anything like some tools in the past, then am I breaking the rules?".

If not, I'll stick with the datastream approach for now, since it works fine. > Well, FAST400 clears the flag set by QT3REQIO from QWSGET/QWSPUT.
