Hi Sharon,

There are probably more elegant methods, but the one that springs to mind is
the DSM Query 5250 (QsnQry5250) API. Check out the IBM i5/OS information
centre for more details on this API.

Subject: Capture display size too small

I have a routine that requires the display size of 27X132.

How can I capture the fact without going to the device that it is only a
24X80 terminal?

What I want to do is to display a different screen telling them they
can't access that function do to the limitation rather than have it blow
up.

TIA,

Sharon Wintermute
