- The problem is is that its not quite as easy as you describe. I have
- the same problem and have tried all of these options, and still cannot
- get a download from the mainframe on either the Terminal program or
- WinQVT (V4.78?). I did get Win100 to work, but when the mainframe's
- busy, I don't want to be manually entering phone numbers all day.
