Tracey,

This "support" question should go to codestudio@rpgiv.com

I'm not sure what you mean by "requires a connection to the AS/400". It does not. It uses a connection if one is there and you need to compile. Otherwise, it is effectively "SEU for Windows" it does the same kinds of things SEU does. The connection would be to download and then upload source code.

Since the trial version is still 16-bit, it doesn't support upload and download via Client Access under Win95.

The new 32-bit version does support integrated transfer of source members via TCP/IP and FTP (only). So that will be a little nicer for those using IP. If you're using the traditional Client Access/400 connection (SDLC) you're screwed. I just don't have enough years left in me to write something for Client Access that actually works. So we decided to go with TCP/IP.

hi bob,

i have a couple of your books, i really find them helpful.

i downloaded the codestudio already, but it seems to require a connection to an as400. is this true?

if not i cant seem to get it to work, maybe i am miising something in the instructions. thanks for the information, i appreciate it.

IBM offers a trial version of their Code/400 production. I'm not sure what the URL is for it, but I'm sure someone else will provide it.

As an FYI, there is a free RPG III and RPG IV editor located at http://www.rpgiv.com/codestudio

This editor is a 16-bit version for Windows, but works fine under Windows 95/98/NT.

It has full prompting, help text support, syntax highlighting, symantec AutoCorrection, etc.

It does not, however do syntax checking or compiling.

hello all,

i was told that you could download an editor that would allow you to compile a pgm and let you know errors and such from a pc at home.

is there such a thing?

and if so do you know where i can download it from?

i am a student now for rpg400 and i am trying to find a way to work some of the programs from home, since computer labs are not always convenient with the hours i work.

thanks in advance,

tracey
