Does anyone know of a way to transfer a file from the iSeries to a pc using CLP or RPGILE? I do not want the user to have to run a client access transfer. I would like the user to be unaware that this transfer has been done.

Select last 3 transactions

SuhelAC — Tue, 22 May 2007 06:54:58 +0000

Hello

Can someone help me to put together an SQL statement to select the last 3 transactions from a transaction file.

In TransactSQL I would do something like this:
select top 3 CustID, TransDate, Amount
from Trans
where CustID= ’12345′
order by TransDate desc.

I believe there must be a more effcient way of getting the latest 3 transactions.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Suhel.

Tracking Changes to Files

AyeYes400 — Fri, 11 May 2007 05:44:42 +0000

Requirement:-

To track any changes to Two files A and B and write fields of A and B to an output file C.
A is related to B (A.Employee = B.Employee)
Could you please suggest a good approach for this?
I am currently using the approach of journalling.
1. Both A and B are journalled.
2. If Any changes to A, then the fields of the changed record of A and corresponding record of B are written to C
3. If Any changes to B, then the fields of the changed record of B and corresponding record of A are written to C. (If already present, Update else insert)
Do you think this is a good approach?Please provide your valuable inputs.

Regards,
EsJay

Trying to publish a Webfacing Project

Slaliberte — Wed, 14 Mar 2007 11:48:39 +0000

Using WebSphere Development Studio I’ve created a WebFacing project converted an existing application on our iSeries to a WebFaced application, but i can only access the WebFaced application from my PC. How publish the application to a web server so that other users can access it. I tried exporting the project to a directory on the IFS but when i tried to invoke the WebFacing application from a web browser (IE 6.0) using http://host name/application – where host name was the ip address to our iSeries and application was the directory and name of the WebFacing application. If any one can tell what I’m doing wrong or maybe point me in the right direction that would be great. Thanks

Copy file from windows to iSeries Optical Library using navigator

CasNowak — Wed, 07 Feb 2007 16:22:36 +0000

We have a network folder on our Windows workstation that contains word documents that we backup yearly. I have created a bat file to copy out just the 2006 files and put them in individual monthly folders (Jan2006, Feb2006, etc.). I would like to copy these folders to our optical library (3995-c42)for backup/Storage on our iSeries. Can this be done. If so can you provide detail info on the process. I am trying to do this all in a bat file or some other way that would automate the process.
Thanks
Cas
