RE: Web to AS/400 Database connectivity

["Stone, Brad V (TC)" <bvstone@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Cold Fusion?  Ikes....  I suppose if you're not going to use the AS/400 as
the web server (big mistake, lots of headaches), then CF would suffice.
Then you have to worry about data replication or try and set up a decent
ODBC connection.

You know, this is a perfect job for Java.  Isn't it?
