Re: AS400 Data --> Palm Pilot

["Bob Luebbe" <bluebbe@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Here are the three ways we've done it:

1) Download the information from the AS/400 to a PC, then connect the PALM
to a PC and download this information to it.  Problem is that it's not
"real" time.

2) If you want "real" time, then you need a wireless palm pilot and can do
one of two things:
a.  You can have a Java program on the Palm connect to the AS/400 through a
socket to receive the information.
b.  Send an e-mail from the AS/400 to the Palm with the scheduling
information.  This data can then be imported from e-mail into the scheduling
application.

Give me a call at 1-800-413-5627 ext. 11 if you need help.

Thanks,
