That’s a question that should be answered by your accountant and possibly your auditor.

How to open ADX files?

You should open .ADX files with the application that created it. You can open it with Notepad if you wish, but that might not be very useful.

Opening a file isn’t useful for much unless it’s done by the application that created it. Since multiple applications are known to use the .ADX file extension, we don’t know what to do with your file. And anyone can create a file with that extension any time they want. Even Notepad can create files with that extension.
.
In short, if it’s your file, you’re the only one who knows where it came from and how it should be opened. If someone sent it to you, you need to ask the sender.

Help with a simple script

The Help menu-bar item should have a ‘Procedures’ menu item. When that displays, open the index and review the [ goto ] entry. When that makes some sense, look over the discussions of [ wait condition ].
.
The ‘goto’ macro statement lets you cause your macro to go back up to a :label that marks your ‘Edit’ point. The ‘goto’ might be right after your ‘roll-up’.
.
You might have a condition that looks for ‘More…’ on the screen, and it keeps going back until ‘More…’ is no longer found.
.
It’s not possible to be very specific without seeing a representative sequence of screens, but maybe you can make some progress or get enough added background to ask for a more useful answer. Not sure what can be added yet.

Transferring data from iSeries V5R4 to Windows 7 PC

Where exactly does the error message show up? Is it in a PC message box? Or is it on an AS/400 terminal screen?

And what exactly is meant by “transfer data from an RPG2 program”? Usually, transfers are from a file, not from a program. Transferring from a program would have some specific elements of programming on the AS/400 that would need to be discussed. Transferring from a file would involve elements of server configurations.

Sharing windows

Without knowing what was installed (and possibly how), it’s hard to be sure. The answer has to be “Yes, it’s possible.” But that’s a long way from saying that it’s what happened. — Tom

Excel to AS/400 VBA – SETTEXT not working

AFAIK, the primary documentation on the web should be Host Access Class Library Automation Objects. It’s not user-friendly by any stretch of the imagination. Much of it is on a single very long page that often has to be searched with a browser search function (i.e., {Ctrl-F}), and multiple variations of the product are all in different parts of that same page.

.
But reading down at least through the discussion of Figure 3 can provide some background.

Do you have a basic Support contract with IBM?

Hidden programs on XP

@Mickey: I figured you knew lots of .EXEs (programs) would be scattered around, because your posting history tells us you have some experience. The general idea, though, does need to be mentioned in order to spark ideas from any possible member.
.
You know, I might think about simply creating lists of all .EXEs from two or three users’ PCs. (I’d pick different kinds of users. The ‘supervisor’ might be one good one.) The lists would be a basis for a clarification discussion with the ‘supervisor’. Ask question like “What about this program?” Perhaps after asking the same question a few dozen times, the situation will be clear.
.
Can you describe a little about what the duties of a “tech liaison” are in your organization? And how does it relate to the responsibilities of the “IT department”? It sounds like an interesting task for you, but it’s not clear if it’s the kind of thing you should have strong accountability for.

Excel to AS/400 VBA – SETTEXT not working

Tom,
Thank you. I tried your suggestion and am getting an index out of bounds error. I’m confused as to why the autECLFieldList would be a better option if I am already calling out the field (which doesn’t work anyway … ).

I’ve been finding all bits of code on the web. I do not have documentation to go by.

Hidden programs on XP

Thank You both for prompt answers. I am not sure that there is a problem, but here is more info.
Our fair IT department created these DCL (deployment check list) for every user and will use them when they push new operating system : Windows 7 (we are currently XP) and all other programs found on those sheets. My immediate supervisor discussed this with me and the following is on the notes:

“Items of Concern are items that do not appear on the DCL which only pulls from the add/remove programs. We will need items that are on the desktop or other software that people are using to ensure it is approved and provided”.

I am the only tech liaison for 150 users and have admin rights to install programs for them. If they have any programs on the desktop (shortcuts) or additional programs either I installed them or I requested push from IT dept. Either way, those items should be on the add/remove list so I am not sure what she is talking about.
I am aware that there are zillion of exe files supporting this and that as part of operating system or part of any software package – and they will be loaded during the switch to W7.
The only thing I could think of are possibly some add ons (for IE or FF engines) that we have now, but may not be automatically loaded…
This is as much detail as I can provide.

Again,
Thank You, and I will make sure to read up on the suggested material.
Mickey

If this is a tracking event, no service actions
are required. Otherwise, use the FRU and procedure

How to write a Fibonacci series in recursion

Here’s an example of using recursion to print the Fibonacci numbers from F2 through F17 (where F0 is o, and F1 is 1). The main proc sets up the conditions; then the GenFibo proc recursively calls itself up to the initial limit.

.
The main proc:
pgm
                                                /* */
   dcl   &limit     *int            value( 16 )
   dcl   &seed1     *int            value( 0 )
   dcl   &seed2     *int            value( 1 )
                                                /* */
   ovrdbf      STDOUT  +
                 tofile( QPRINT )  +
                 ovrscope( *JOB ) +
                 share( *YES )
                                                /* */
   callprc  GenFibo  ( &limit &seed1 &seed2 )
                                                /* */
   dltovr      STDOUT  lvl( *JOB )
                                                /* */
   return
                                                /* */
endpgm
The GenFibo proc is:
pgm    ( +
         &limit       +
         &seed1       +
         &seed2       +
       )
                                                /* */
   dcl   &limit     *int
   dcl   &seed1     *int
   dcl   &seed2     *int
   dcl   &seed3     *int
                                                /* */
   dcl   &cSeed       *char   10
                                                /* */
   dcl   &prtTxt      *char   32
                                                /* */

   dcl   &x00         *char    1     value( x'00' )
                                                /* */

   chgvar   &seed3   ( &seed1 + &seed2 )
   chgvar   &limit   ( &limit - 1 )

                                                /* */

      callprc  GenFibo  ( &limit &seed2 &seed3 )
                                                /* */
   return
                                                /* */
endpgm
(The comment marks on every blank are needed because of what this editor does to blank lines in code-blocks.)
.
It’s not C++, but for the most part, recursion is recursion is recursion…
.
If it can be done in ILE CL, C++ should be easy. What problem are you having? Show us the code you have so we can comment on it. If we can’t see it, we can’t say anything useful.

How would you manage your BYOD bandwidth successfully?

I’d also suggest that you need to know your network – have a baseline for what’s “normal”. You have to determine what’s being used and traversing the network. A written policy won’t cut it – people are going to do things (or at least try) whether or not it’s allowed.

Finally, you have to stay on top of what’s going on. Network management is not a one-time deal that you set and forget, like security. Okay, I’m just kidding about the security part but sadly, that’s how many people treat it. Become and stay vigilant.

Hidden programs on XP

I’m not sure if you’re talking about .exe files on disk or ones that are actually doing something on the system at any given time. If you or one of your staff members is fairly technical you can use Process Explorer and related Sysinternals tools to seek out and monitor what’s running. The following three articles I’ve written on this subject may help:
http://searchenterprisedesktop.techtarget.com/tip/Sysinternals-tools-A-must-have-for-every-Windows-security-toolbox
