Re: What Version of Service Pack for OS/400, etc ??? -- MIDRANGE-L

Never mind -  got my questions answered by IBM (the had us under 2 Customer
Numbers and Supportline contract was NOT under the one that "caller id" links us
up with...

The problem is that the AS/400 is nearly a year behind Cum Tap wise. I've 
ordered
SF47544 for the AS/400 and will work on getting V3R1M3...

Thanks anyway !

Chuck
