AS/400 Network Access overview

AS/400 Network Access is an add-on feature available to those that have purchased it. If you did not purchase AS/400 Network Access, but need this functionality, contact your Cleo sales representative.

The AS/400 is also known as the “iSeries”, “System I” or "IBM i", but will continue to be referred to generically throughout this document as the “AS/400” however “iSeries”, “System i” or "IBM i" may be used interchangeably.

AS/400 Network Access enables VersaLex to read and write directly from the AS/400 native (QSYS.LIB) file system, allowing for seamless conversion of the data between EBCDIC and ASCII formats. Using AS/400 Network Access, AS/400 native files can be read or written by VersaLex, running under either the Windows or Unix platform.  For additional information on installing VersaLex on either of these platforms, refer to the VersaLex User's Guide, which be found on the Cleo web site at http://www.cleo.com/Lexicomdoc, http://www.cleo.com/VLTraderdoc, or http://www.cleo.com/Harmonydoc
