RE: OV/400 on V5R1M0

["Bob Crothers" <bob2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If all you need is SNDDST TYPE(*MSG), would SNDNETMSG work?  It also goes
thru SNADS and is delivered to their message queue.

I am assuming more than one AS400 is involved and you are sending between
systems.  If there is only one 400, then just change to SNDMSG.

Hi
> Are you telling me that (OV/400)... would still be available on 5.1???

What I am telling is that you CAN make OV/400 run unsupported on V5R1M0
STRWP, MRGDOC, PRTDOC and more works for me and many other. Several
guidelines could be found about how to do it. Basicly it is SAVLICPGM on V4,
changing a new switch on V5R1M0 and RSTLICPGM. Search the archive for more
about this.

Also I tell that STROFC does not work for me (and at least for some others).
Apart from some applications (doing a merge with an OV/400 doc) that need to
be replaced but hasn't been, I found an application that does a SNDDST
TYPE(*MSG). This is really not an OV/400 function, rather an good ol' SNA
distribution, and I (emphasize I) can read it using QRYDST and RCVDST. Users
can't! My question was if I need to write a program to allow the users to
read it, or if I can find another way. I already know that I will not write
a program - it's easier to switch the program sending the sistribution to
send an smtp, but it might be even easier to use an existing way to do the
old 'work with mail'.
