AS/400 HELP

"SNooP"

SnooP Lets you see what another user is doing on your AS/400. It captures the user’s current screen for you to view like STRCPYSCN without the user knowing. It’s also a great tool to help a user in distress.

SNooP starts by showing all signed on users. API QWSRTVOI verifies the selected job has an active screen before trying to retrieve the screen with STRSRVJOB and TRCJOB. The CL program to retrieve the user’s screen was written by Yow Wai Fong in an article in Iseries Programmer Tips

SNooP was written at V5r2 and compiled down to V4r5

SNooP is available for $10.00
