I just tried it without a timeout value and it goes through but the program
doesn't work. I have tried calling it through cmd.exe and it does not return
more than 2000 characters. It just doesn't seem to work with CF 5. Rmtcmd
sends a remote command to the AS/400 for processing.

Two questions:

*Have you tried it without the timeout attribute?
*Have you tried name="c:\\winnt\system32\cmd.exe" (admittedly, I don't
know what rmtcmd.exe is)
*How much data does this return when done at the command line? (A
reply to one of my old posts follows)

Good luck,
