Carsten Flensburg wrote a sample program that demonstrates this API at the following link (requires a free "associate' membership to the iSeries Network): http://www.iseriesnetwork.com/article.cfm?ID=18313 An interesting way to determine when a new file is added (instead of checking every 10 seconds) might be to journal an IFS directory. Use the RCVJRNE command in a NEP with an exit program that's called each time a new file is created in the IFS. Have the exit program use QP0LROR to wait until the file is unlocked, and then process it. I think Carsten may have done an article on that as well, but I can't find it...
