>Has anybody had any experience of using API's to retrieve >the contents of PF fields? OK, I'll bite. WHY? Every iSeries language has a native method of reading the DB, why would you look to use an API? If you really need something you can call, you could write your own "API" in RPG and then call it from another program. I've done that when the calling program didn't know where the data was stored (online of on a archive server) but even then, if I was reading online data my API would use native CHAIN/READ operations. -Walden ------------ Walden H Leverich III President & CEO Tech Software (516) 627-3800 x11 WaldenL@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.TechSoftInc.com Quiquid latine dictum sit altum viditur.
