AS/400 HELP

“PHONE”

RPGIV To The Web With CGI

PHONE displays a list of names and phone numbers from file PHONE in library CGILIB using a web browser. You will need to set up a HTTP server (instance) to use PHONE.

PHONE uses OPNQRYF to allow searching within the name field.

The file PHONE in library CGILIB can be maintained with STRDFU. I have included the file as shown.

PHONE was developed at V5r1. This ‘effort’ came about after reading the EXCELLENT Bradley V Stone ‘ eRPG ‘ book and articles by Jon Paris.
