Default How to read text content of AS400 screen

abc,

Yes, you can. What is the interface you are using to access the 400?

I use ISeries Access and there are many functions available to read the
current screen, fields, etc.

If using ISeries, check out http://publib.boulder.ibm.com. There is a
reference to the library's you can use within the Emulator via Macro/Script
coding.

Also you can use the help function within the emulator to get language
reference help. If you know what you want to do, write back, and I can try to
get you started.

Dear all,

Is there a way to read all the text content of a dos mode interface
application, like AS400 or dos prompt?
I want to write a macro to read AS400 current menu's content and status,
then do some calculation and make some input by sendkeys funtion
thereafter.

Thanks
