Re: RDi 9.6 is now available!!!

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Everything in ACS is a work-in-progress. We just aren't going to get the 
world the first day - hey, even God took 6 days!

IBM have added items to the Schema component - to see about new things, 
put in some RFEs - one for each discreet item, not a list, to which IBM 
can't easily say yes - no line-item veto for people voting on RFEs, right?

Instad you have to jump back out of the Schema viewer, go to the ACS welcome page and open the SQL Performance viewer, choose your database, and then go about your business. Not user friendly.

Instead you must go back to the Access Client solutions Welcome screen (or completely exit the Schemas viewer), and hit "Run SQL Scripts". There should be a "Run SQL Scripts" from within the schemas manager where you managed 99% of your other database operations.

I still have to drop back to the no-longer-supported IBM I Navigator to do some tasks as ACS still hasn't got all the features Navigator had. So basically now I tab through DBeaver, IBM I Navigator, and ACS to get tasks complete. Very poor user experience.
