Re: IBM i 7.6 Development tools

Hi Gavin

I would say several thousand of us have downloaded from that site. It has been very trustworthy. Giovanni Perotti, the founder, passed away in 2024, and either his family or someone in this community now manage it

Has anyone downloaded from the easy400 site?

Easy400 requires registration, as well as, requires a mobile Phone # to complete it.  I'd rather not provide my personal cell considering the entire site is unsecure and there's no information on what would be done with it after I register.

Forgot about WRKDBF.  According to the website's Enhancements page
it hasn't been updated since 2010.  Have there been any enhancements
to DB2 since then that could affect a file editor?

Kerwin, did you miss this part in the original post?

Selected Application Development ToolSet tools and their associated
commands continue to be *available but not supported *in IBM i 7.6:

     - Start Data File Utility (STRDFU)
     - Create DFU Display File (CRTDFUDSPF)

Someone correct me if I'm mistaken, but DFU hasn't been *supported*
for many years (decades?) now.

In a former life I used FEU - File Edit Utility.

And there is also WRKDBF

Neither are free. But isn't ACS SQL support now allowing update
capabilities.
