Re: Asynch Communications

Citibank has told me that they are no longer accepting Bisynch dial. I wish they
were - I already have one of our locations transmitting bisync - my original
plans were to do an identical transmission as we are already doing - until
Citibank told me they wouldn't set up anymore accounts that way. This has turned
out to be one of those... 1 day jobs that turned into 2 months!
The error I keep getting is return code 1100 - which is read from invited
program device failed. What am I doing wrong?????? I even tried the code Buck
sent... It gave me the same error.

Citibank also supports 2780/3780 Bisynch dial. Much easier and cleaner on
the AS/400. You can roll your own using ICF files and RPG, or several of us
have products that do this, too.
