Client Access and Windows Compatibility

Hey, Joe:


I saw an ad for a third-party AS/400-oriented product that implied Client Access won't work on Windows 2000. I wasn't sure if they were talking Client Access or another version of the product. What's the scoop here?

Delete Badly-Named OS/400 IFS Files

Hey, Ted:

I have a question/problem with OS/400 IFS. If I run the Work with Object Links (WRKLNK) command, I can see stream files for objects that do not actually exist. These are objects that I had tried to FTP to the AS400, but apparently I did something wrong. If I try to delete this object, I get an error saying the object does not exist. Is there a way to get rid of these? I have included a screen shot for you to see.

Reader Feedback and Insights: Converting OV/400 Documents to Microsoft Word

I just read the article "Convert OV/400 Documents to MS Word for Free" in the May 8 issue of Midrange Guru, OS/400 Edition, and I wanted to comment that Microsoft Word includes a free 'Batch Converter' as a wizard, at least in Word2000. If you have the Convpack.exe (it provides the DCA-RFT converters) installed on your computer, all you need to do is choose File > New > Other Documents (tab) and select the Batch Conversion Wizard. It can convert all or selected documents in an AS/400 to Microsoft Word format at once.
