The script can be named like the service program module source (perhaps using a U suffix) in the same source file so it will be easier for more people to find and use--definitely a winner.

Unfortunately, I don't see a way to set that value on the parameter tab in the iSeries Navigator New External Function window. Guess I'll just have to get used to building the CREATE FUNCTION script myself. Or maybe I could 1) use the window, 2) create the UDF, 3) generate the SQL, 4) change the parameter, 5) delete the UDF, and 6) run the script. Or even better, save a template script that I change as necessary. Thank you everyone. Hope this helps someone save two days + of experimentation!

This is not done via ptf's from your host machine. There are three area's to update: - Library firmware - Drive firmware - RMU firmware Library firmware is equivalent to pushing these sequence of buttons on your 3582: Status, Firmware, Application. The other two are in the same area, but they don't rename them like Library vs Application does. http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=590&context=STCB7FE&dc=D420&q1=ssg1*&uid=ssg1S4000152&loc=en_US&cs=utf-8&lang=en Rob Berendt -- Group Dekko Services, LLC Dept 01.073 PO Box 2000 Dock 108 6928N 400E Kendallville, IN 46755 http://www.dekko.com ------------------------------ message: 7 date: Fri, 06 May 2005 14:05:19 -0700 from: "James H H Lampert" <jamesl@xxxxxxxxxxx> subject: Control panel battery for a B20? Does anybody know the specs for a B20 control panel battery? We've fired up and cleaned out our old B20, in hopes that somebody will give it a good home, and remarkably, the only thing that's gone bad in it is the control panel battery. (does the phrase, "built like a tank" mean anything to you?)Obviously, anybody who actually intends to put the thing back into service (rather than use it as a "hangar queen") will need to replace it. It's apparently a NiCad, and it's the kind that has the cells in a heatshrink tube, with a short cable coming out the end. -- JHHL ------------------------------ message: 8 date: Fri, 6 May 2005 16:12:09 -0500 from: "Scott Swaim" <scott@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> subject: Re: Control panel battery for a B20?

You can find them online or possibly a local electronics store. You might try using standard size AA or AAA cells in a 3 cell battery holder. It will be cheaper and also easier the next time if you ever have to replace them again.

ODBC is after all the MS standard; you can access ODBC tables from Excel, and you can also access Excel spreadsheets as ODBC data. To learn about importing data, just use the help documentation for Excel. Go into the Contents, select "Importing Data" and then "Setting up Microsoft Query and Data Sources". This chapter deals with reading ODBC data into Excel. I haven't done much with this, but I think you're looking for an "external data range".
