Re: graphical display question

Visual Age RPG could display those for you quite easily, in a variety of 
fonts, sizes, and colors. 

It'll make a client/server for you in Java, or for Windows 95/98/2000.  I 
hear people look askance at the product, but it's here right now and it 
works.  RPG programmers can make it work, if they can get it installed.

We have client access, telnet, rhumba, and mochasoft, I want to use GDDM 
to
display on the RPG/ILE screen a large font letter, maybe some other stuff,
GDDM keeps telling me that the display device must be a 5292 mod 2.
Is there a way around this, or is there a better solution..  we are on 
V4R4

Here is what we will be attempting..

PC with a scanner pass-thru to keyboard, hooked on to the as/400, screen
would
input the upc bar code, display in a large font to the user the "bin" to 
put
the
product in. blah, blah blah..../ pc hooked up through ethernet.

hardware wise is the way we are going, "could" just out put character to
"look"
like the bin, but that is pretty cheesy..

My other software keeps re-configuring my virtual devices to 3179-2 or
3477-FC;
the as/400 will not keep my dev at a 5292-2 as I created it.

Any other ideas;  that would not scare my boss (java, vrpg, c++, VB, xml,
html, or net.data)

TIA
