RE: VFYIMGCLG Parameter

Jeff,

I did the VFYIMGCLG from the command line after I had added and loaded the DVD into the image catalogue. I realize from past experience with upgrades and PTF's that the system is going to do its own VFYIMGCLG anyway, but I always like to do them ahead of time, too, so that I don't waste time if the image is bad (though I've never had one of those).

Yes, they sent a DVD, at least that's what the label says. And it took a god awful long time to ADDIMGCLE it.

Well, like I said, it'll be a day or two before I try the actual install.

By the way, the main reason that I went ahead and installed the client-side of System i Access 6.1 was because of the Excel add-in. The 5.4 and earlier versions wouldn't load a table with > 64k rows even though we're on Excel 2007. I had to break one table down a couple of weeks ago for our auditors by setting up worksheets, otherwise I have to copy it to a stream file as a cvs. Just easier to use the actual table.

Was this taking option 11 from the LICPGM menu? Got the actual DVD? Try it
from OPT01, though I can't see why that would matter.

Better to FUBAR you system than mine. <g>
