I agree, for a long time, I was working with filters and it is painful
especially when you want to open up othe lib/sources. The table view really
comes handy.

And, as you say, it is important to let programmers know about iSeries
Table
View. My experience is that most programmers see the RSE View, recognize
the
Windows Explore analogy, and get caught in the trap of thinking that's the
only or best way to access members.
Thanks,
Kelly

I think you are right. You can use filters for projects, etc and Table
View for quick member access. Since we use software for most of our
projects and optionally link to iSeries Projects, we probably would use
iSeries Table view more than filters. I used to use filters to get to
members not on the project. Once I found out about iSeries Table view, I
cannot remember the last time I opened a filter. But, someone who stores
projects as filters would use that more and would be vice versa. Thanks
for pointing that out. I just never really got on the filter bandwagon
since it was so slow for listing lots of members. I think it can be a very
valuable tool when put to the right use.
I at least want to make it known that there is more than one way to copy
the member. It is up to the programmer to decide which way they like.

Filters can be a great way to organize access to members over periods of
time. For example, I have a filter that holds all source members (COBOL,
CL,
DDS, and even a couple of text files) related to a system that transmits
information from our ERP system to a particular business partner. I use the
filter to keep everything related to that project in one place. Now, when I
need to maintain that system, I just click on the filter and everything is
at hand.
I now have several such filters that hold all source related to a project.
I've started using filter pools to organize these into groups (e.g.,
project
filters involving data exchanges with business partners, project filters
for
internal reports, and so forth).
I also use iSeries Table view when I need to quickly pull up source members
for which I don't have a filter. It's by no means an either-or proposition.
A good combination of filters and iSeries Table View can be more effective
than using either one alone.
Anyway, that's why I use filters.
