Re: Calling IE Edge or Chrome via IBM I

Another option would be to call out the specific browser you want via a command call.

Might require code changes in your app though so default browser thing is easiest.

 Depending on what version of Windows is running, it might default to trying to use "IE"... :-o?? So, you may need to change the default application association for that in Windows.??? Just saying ...
