Check out my latest open source tool "RPG To Desktop":

This will keep you from needing an HTTP/FTP server on the client, and also
it doesn't require ClientAccess.

Subject: RE: Send_File API versus Send API over a Socket

Since we are at this topic, I wonder what would be the best method to
handle a business requirement where user wants to be able to press a
command key on a green screen that will allow him to save a AS400 DB
file on his/her workstation in csv format?

Since FTP, HTTP.. server does not usually run on user's pc, I'm assuming
that FTP, HTTP will not work under this requirement.

I thinking instead of green screen app doing a ftp put, maybe it can
just run a remote pc command of ftp get. However, I'm not sure how to
handle AS400 login and how to run a ftp script using remote pc command.

Just wonder, not that I need it.
