Re: Off List - RE: 5250 for iPhone

   Chuck,

   I use Mochasoft's Mocha TN5250.  It works OK for the occasional use like
   you describe.  You can build in a logon script that simplies that
   process.  Take a look at http://www.mochasoft.dk/.

   The idea of data entry on a Treo is quite funny. :-)

 Bruce,

 Not to clutter this thread up anymore then it is already :-)

 I just got a work Treo and was wondering the best way to be able to access
 our iSeries.

 Can you tell me how you are doing this and what software you are using ?

 I think Trevor is really missing that most of use just need to access the
 system to check on jobs, answer messages, etc. and not to do heads down data
 entry, etc.

 Thanks !

 Chuck

 I using my treo all the time to access our iseries to respond to issues. In
 fact I create some abbreviated command like DJ=DSPJOBLOG, WA=WRKACTJOB, ETC.
