Eddie,

Bravo!  That is a much, much better solution that the way Gio is coding it.

Best yet is to eliminate 5250 and STRPCCMD entirely, and do it entirely with web.

We had similar problems. We moved away from using shared folders on the IFS to serving files via the integrated web server. Worked perfectly and let us become platform independent as we have MacOS workstations as well that connect to our AS400.

Obviously the problem is that Windows didn't keep the login information. It doesn't remember it permanently (unless you tell it to.)

You can use the "net use" PC command to set the Windows login information. You can use that from your script to make sure it's ready to launch the Xls (or PDF, which appears to be what you're actually trying to launch).

Hi all

I'm try to open from RPG a Xls file stored in Ifs with this command :
STRPCCMD PCCMD('rundll32 shell32,ShellExec_RunDLL
"\\192.168.0.100\PDF\MYFLR\MYDOC_1141521.pdf") PAUSE(*NO)'). Yesterday i
tested my program and it was ok; today i have retried and

It don't works (i don't know why), then after some test, i have opened the
folder from windows explorer. Windows have asked AS400's user and password
and then showed the folder with MYDOC_1141521.pdf. After that i have retried
to run my program and now the STRPCCMD PCCMD('rundll32 shell32,ShellExec..
works fine and open the document.

Questions:

1. Which could the problem ?

2. Possible that until i don't open MYFLR via windows, STRPCCMD
PCCMD('rundll32 shell32,ShellExec.. Don't works

3. Which workaround ?

Thanks in advance

Gio
