STRCODE is the piece that lets the Code editor pass source members between 
the PC and the 400.    I have not been able to use a name in the remote 
location parm; I use my IP address.  You can open a DOS window in W95 and 
use the WINIPCFG command to determine your IP address if it's assigned 
dynamically.
