RE: MS Vista and iSeries Access support

IBM doesn't officially **SUPPORT** it yet.  No one said it didn't work.

Subject: RE: MS Vista and iSeries Access support

Who said that iSeries Access doesn't run on Vista???  I have been using
various builds of Vista over the last few months on my work PC in a
dual-boot with XP, the latest being RC2.  There isn't anything that I
have found that doesn't work.  That includes WDSC and iSeries Access,
third-party Anti-virus and anti-spyware tools, IM clients, etc.

<begin rant> And why does a simple question about windows compatibility
always have to turn into a MS-bashing???  No, they aren't perfect.
'Nuff said.  Stay on topic! <end rant)

I am unaware of software compatibility problems that force users to 
upgrade. Very curious to know why client access cant run on Vista.
Could be it is not written to use the .NET managed code framework.
