Re: iSeris access/V5R3/Win98

Whoa here!

IMSMW there is CA and there is CA.  

IBM has this product called CA.  It has two components:

  1.  The FREE stuff (ops nav, odbc, etc.)
  2.  The Billable stuff (display, printer, file xfer)

The display (green screen stuff) is just telnet extended (TN5250E) and getting a
5250 telnet client for W3.1, W9x, W2K, WXP, etc. is not big deal.  There are
many options.  

Having worked with many my longtime preference for the price and quality is
still Synapse (www.synapse.com).
