RE: BLOB's on AS/400?

As a side question,   How many would like it if Rochester changed the Data
Link
function so that we would see the URL field as just a Character type field
in RPG?

Something like we were able to do in RPGIII with DATE/TIME/TIMESTAMP data
types?

I think if we lean on Rochester they would do that for us. They just don't
know
we need it.

Yes, I would like to view the Link as a character string and/or retrieve the
linked object.  We are looking into this for images of canceled checks that
will be scanned and placed in the IFS.
