Re: iSeries search update

Mark,

Basically we are just going to create a dummy print device and change the
programmers user profiles to go to that device. Our administrator chooses
not to change objects that could possibly be updated by an O/S upgrade. Will
just have to watch that dummy print queue and clean up our search results.
This will keep us from wasting paper. Hopefully, IBM can get a quick fix
into the next release that will allow to print or not print.

Best regards,
