Smart shopping
As the holiday season approaches, you may be thinking of things you can buy that are sure to surprise those you're buying for. When you're shopping for a new iSeries or new hardware, however, you don't want any surprises. Don't buy anything until you've checked out the information we've gathered for you. Our Best Web Links section on hardware includes reviews of products, case studies and articles comparing the iSeries with servers from other companies. You'll also find information about storage products, printers, new products and upgrades and used equipment. If you still have questions after you've checked out everything, you can also ask our site experts. Tim Granatir and Richard Belles, our systems management experts, can help you with hardware and upgrade issues you may be grappling with. |

Use hotspots to mouse-enable PC5250 screens
Hotspots can be valuable aids for Windows-dependent users to better navigate PC5250 green screens. They allow users to activate function keys, launch macros and scripts, execute strings on a 5250 screen as if they had been typed on an AS/400 command line or an input-capable field, and launch a Web-browser from inside an RPG program. Joe Hertvik shows you how to set up hotspots and gives you tips for using them. |
