EVERYTHING is IFS on the iSeries. It isn't "separate" from user
libraries and licensed programs and documents and streamfiles and
user profiles and everything else that can be seen; all of those
things are *IN* the IFS.

Yes, I wrote a VB program once to list all the objects on the
AS/400 thru ODBC. The problem at the time was there was no way to
access members beyond the first. I 'm sure they have changed that
now, and probably added OLE DB besides.
