RE: ActiveX 5250

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't think there is a control - PC5250 is actually from the Personal 
Communications product, BTW. There ARE all the ActiveX automation 
references available for use in anything that can use ActiveX, and those 
could be used to create and manipulate a PC5250 session, thus, could be 
used in an OCX.

That PC5250 object that can be imported to Word or to an OLE control in VB 
appears to be a version 4.2 emulation. I don't know what this means. 
(iSeries Access' PC5250 is at PCOMM v5.5.) I also have not explored how 
much feedback one gets from it, or ability to control it from the 
containing application.

Check out the iSeries Access toolkit for links to the PCOMM documentation 
on ActiveX.

Vern
