I'm actually setting the user profile and password in the connection string 
when establishing a connection to the iSeries.  Even if that were not the case, 
it does not appear my application is being executed at all.  

I'll poke around iSeries Access a little bit and see if I can get it to save an 
i.d. and password.

Thanks.

What account is the rexec service running under? 

I once wrote a VB prog that atttempted to use the Client Access OLEDB driver. 
It worked fine on my PC, and if I was logged onto the server as anyone, but 
always failed when called via REXEC. Issue was that there was no user/pass 
cached for the 'Server' account the REXEC service ran under. So when it tried 
to run the program, the OLEDB driver would try to prompt for user/pass, but 
since there was no console session, it'd
just silently fail.

What I did to resolve it was create a new user account, OLEDBUSER, then log on 
to the server using that account, set up the connection in ClientAccess, and 
ran the program. Sure enough, the first connection attempt it prompted for 
user/pass, so I entered it, clicked the
'remember' (or whatever its called) box, then logged back on as Admin, and 
changed the rexec service to run under the 'OLEDBUSER' account, and restarted 
it. Worked fine then.
