Re: STRINFSKR

Yes it does say Command STRINFSKR has been removed.  The text refers to the
softcopy CD and the web site.  Now my only problem will be finding a copy of the
softcopy cd since I threw the ones away that I got with the upgrade.  Who knew
that I would ever need it!!

Did IBM finally drop this poor excuse for system documentation?  (If you type
STRINFSKR and press Enter, do you get a "Command not found" or somesuch?  If
you do, I think it no longer exists on V4R4.)

Paul, do yourself and your programmers a huge favor.  Install the Softcopy
CD-ROM.  Install the Bookmanager software on each programmer's workstation and
install the books and bookshelves on a network drive that your programmers
have access to.  The Softcopy CD-ROM has directions for setting this up.

This is presuming, of course, that you're not using dumb terminals. <g>

If your programmers have internet access, another option is to use IBM's
online documentation.  The best way to access this, I've found, is to use
News400's Index400, found at:
   http://www.as400network.com/index400/Index.html

My current preference is the Softcopy over IBM's web-based docs.  Depending on
your connection speed, Softcopy may be much faster to search and access the
documentation you're looking for.

But either solution is heads and tails better than STRINFSKR.  Way!
