Re: Interesting Question!! Urgent

I think it might be possible, if it is possible to call a PC program from
the AS/400.  I know that you can call an AS/400 from a PC with client
access, if the reverse is true, it should be very doable.

That is, when the user presses F2 you would have the AS/400 call a
program on the client's PC.  That program on the PC, a batch file say,
would open up a client access client to the appropriate AS/400.

I think the only difficulty would be the automatic sign on.  If you can
figure out some way to get client access to automatcially sign on when
opened, it should be no problem.  You would just set up a program to
call in the users sign on.

So, there seem to be 2 missing pieces of the puzzle.  1. Calling a PC
program from teh AS/400  2.  Automatically signing on to the AS/400
from client access.
