     i use rumba.  to start another rumba session i would use:
     strpccmd pccmd('"C:\Program Files\WallData\as400\Rumbawsf.exe"
     develop.wda') pause(*no)

     i'd try a cut & paste from the shortcut tab of the properties portion
of the icon on your desktop (right click on the icon, select properties
from the
     menu). it might work, because the desktop shortcut should be executing
a program object, even if it is not EXE.  I've used the command on the 400
to
start BAT files on my PC.

This is great, but i am not sure which EXE file in my pc would kick off the
as400 session.

Does anybody know which EXE file it is???. (i did look at the shortcut
properties on my desktop but its not an executable file)

Please advice.

Thanks.
Gade.

     We don't use CA, but I have called PC apps from the 400 by using the
     Client Access Organizer (*PCO). CAO has been available for the AS/400
     from the first version of OS/400, BW (Before Windows) and when 5250
     emulation programs only worked with DOS.

     Caveats:
     · You cannot execute the Organizer from a non-programable work station
     · The product will be started from the PC where the command is being
     executed from.
     · You do not need any special configuration of the PC.
     · Not all emulation programs support the Organizer functions.

     To see if your 5250 emulation program supports CAO, runs the following
     commands on a 400 session (assuming that the Windows calculator is
     installed on the Pc in the Windows dir):

     STRPCO PCTA(*NO).
     STRPCCMD PCCMD('C:\WINDOWS\CALC.EXE') PAUSE(*NO)

     If the Windows Calculator has been opened in your PC, and you can
     continue working in your AS/400 normally, then your emulation
     correctly supports the functions of CAO. If on the other hand, the
     calculator does not open, or the 400 session has been disconnected or
     the 400 session won't allow you to enter commands, then that means
     that your emulation does not support the functions of CAO.

     You can use any executable program in lieu of C:\WINDOWS\CALC.EXE

     Enjoy

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.

Jim Langston
