Personal Communications is the emulator used in Access for IBM i and earlier - known for short as PC5250.

The screen size is a setting in the workstation file, I'm curious about a default there. And in ACS, once you get to that.

One idea I had was to create a model WS file that has the setting, then just copy that and maybe change workstation name or whatever - it is just a text file, after all.

Doug, I'd look into silent install options, perhaps - Google for that and Personal Communications.

We use Personal Communications to access our IBM i, using V6.0

Does anyone know how to set the default new workstation setup to be 27x132
instead of 24x80?

As far as I know this is an issue of the displays and screens and cannot be changed from client side.
