Tim,
>>The question I ask is why would anyone spend the time and effort to
write this utility - much as I appreciate getting a copy for free! There
are several excellent packages available for a relatively small sum -
certainly for far less than the cost of writing a similar tool. There's
no way I could justify spending time and resources on a project that's
not really pertinent to the business and for which a cheap solution is
already available. I guess there are more idle hands about than I
thought.<<

Actually, to some of us who consult in (sometimes) small shops who won't make
such an investment, this utility is a godsend.  Lord knows I've tried to talk to
ProData (DBU) about creating a consultant license (never mind the technical
hurdles involved to ensure that it doesn't end up on every AS/400 box in the
country) that I could buy on my own to enable me to use it at any AS/400 shop I
happen to be working in at the time.
