It sounds as though you might be able to help me with my problem?  Because
since I posted my question, I have talked to a technical person at Help
Systems who verified that Save does _not_ work with 3rd party paging
products.  The official line seems to be that 3rd party products are
impossible to support. I pointed out that I'm not asking them to support
the other pager, I just need to get the appropriate messages to somewhere I
can get at them. No go.

He did suggest that we try configuring their network monitoring package to
send messages to an AS/400 msgq.  Since the price he mentioned was
right<g>, we may try to do that.

Does your paging app work with Save?  If so, what did you do?

Thanks for all help...
