Re: "push" files in Client Access?

[Alan Novick <ANovick@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

When I try STRPCO (using client access, TCP/IP connection) I get the following:

Message ID . . . . . . :   IWS4032       Severity . . . . . . . :   30
Message type . . . . . :   Escape
Date sent  . . . . . . :   10/29/98      Time sent  . . . . . . :   09:21:05

Message . . . . :   STRPCO can only be run from a programmable workstation.
Cause . . . . . :   The Start Client Access Organizer (STRPCO) command must be
  run from a personal computer.
Recovery  . . . :   If you need to use the STRPCO command, run the command
  from a programmable workstation connected to this host system.
Technical description . . . . . . . . :   The STRPCO command is supplied as
  part of the Client Access product, allowing you to use AS/400 and PC
  applications from a single menu on the host system.
