I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish but SimpList might be able to do what you want. It integrates the mainframe and PC so you can perform tasks on either one. For example, you can click hyperlinks on ISPF panels and have it open web pages in a browser, or open PC files for edit on the mainframe, or print mainframe files on a PC printer, or display a PC directory on the mainframe so you can select files to browse/edit/print/transfer (etc.). Feel free to contact me off-list if you want more information.
