RE: CA/400 Tab Key Problem.

["Mark A. Manske" <manske@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Have the user re-boot, it IS a windows issue; or beef up the memory to 512Mb and get those screaming processors of 600Mhz, then windows

can function, otherwise tell your users to only run one app at a time.  It has happened here mostly when someone has two or more CA sessions

up, word, excel and outlook, until we beefed up the memory on the PC's.

 

Long reign the AS/400, stable, reliable, and user friendly.

Subject: CA/400 Tab Key Problem.

We are running in to a random problem that I was wondering if any of you had this and know a fix.

 

We are running Client Access in a 5250 emulation on a multiple AS/400 network.  Most PC's are running close to if not the current Service Pack.

 

We are not sure what the cause is.  But the problem is, when hitting the "tab" key it will jump to the next window.  Much like when hitting the "alt-tab" key sequence.  The user is not pressing on the "alt" key at the same time.  If the "alt" key is pressed the problem appears to be fixed.

 

I know what you are saying this sounds like a PC issue.  The PC Teck suspects that Client Access is the problem, due to it only happens when CA is up and running.  Do any of you know of anything that we can look at.  I have looked at the keyboard mapping and do not see anything odd.

 

TIA
