Thanks for the reply.  We don't want to prereq Ops Navigator so STRPCCMD
isn't an option.

Ops Nav has nothing whatsoever to do with STRPCCMD. The only requirement for STRPCCMD is a 5250 emulator that supports it.

iSeries Access, Rumba, MochaSoft, and TN5250 (the open source one) all support it for sure, and I suspect that just about every other emulator out there does. (Though, I'm not sure about tn5250j)

Granted, it won't work with an actual green screen terminal -- but since you can't run a browser on a 5250 terminal, that's really a non-issue.

Consider taking a few minutes to try a very simple program and see if it works in your emulator:

    PGM
         STRPCO
         MONMSG IWS4010
         STRPCCMD PCCMD('start http://www.midrange.com') +
                  PAUSE(*NO)
    ENDPGM

Run this little CL program. It'll take you two minutes to install it and try it.

(If you're running the open-source TN5250, you'll need to be running the current version in CVS, and have +allow_strpccmd in your tn5250rc file.)
