Help Desk Installation Instructions - Demo Version - Windows Method

  1. Print this page.

  2. Click on "Download Demo".   (Note which directory the file is copied to.)

  3. After the file has been downloaded, go to the directory it was copied to, type
      HLPDEMO.EXE, and press enter.  This will unzip the files that you downloaded.
      The next step is to move these files to the AS/400.

  4. Create a folder on the AS400 - CRTFLR FLR(FASTFLR) INFLR(*NONE)

  5. Open Windows Explorer and map a drive to FASTFLR.  (Mapping is done by
      going to the Tools menu and taking the 'Map Network Drive' option.)

  6. Open a 2nd Explorer window and bring up the downloaded files in it.

  7. Drag the downloaded files from the PC folder to FASTFLR on the AS400.

  8. Run the following commands on the AS400:

      CRTLIB FASTBREED (Skip this step if the library's already there.)
      CRTPF FILE(QTEMP/HLPPF1) RCDLEN(528) SIZE(*NOMAX)
      CRTPF FILE(QTEMP/HLPPF2) RCDLEN(528) SIZE(*NOMAX)
      CRTSAVF FILE(QTEMP/HLPSV1) AUT(*ALL)
      CRTSAVF FILE(QTEMP/HLPSV2) AUT(*ALL)
      CPYFRMPCD FROMFLR(FASTFLR) TOFILE(QTEMP/HLPPF1)
          FROMDOC(HLPDEMO.SVF) TOMBR(*FIRST) MBROPT(*REPLACE)
          TRNTBL(*NONE) TRNFMT(*NOTEXT)
       CPYFRMPCD FROMFLR(FASTFLR) TOFILE(QTEMP/HLPPF2)
          FROMDOC(FASTBASE.SVF) TOMBR(*FIRST) MBROPT(*REPLACE)
          TRNTBL(*NONE) TRNFMT(*NOTEXT)

  9. Create the following conversion program.
      FFMFILE     IPE F           528          DISK
      FTOFILE     O    F           528          DISK                              A
      IFMFILE      NS  01
      I                                                                     1 512  FLD1
      I                                                                 513 528  FLD2
     OTOFILE      DADD      01
     O                                             FLD1   512
     O                                             FLD2   528

10. Override the files and then run the program.
      OVRDBF FILE(FMFILE) TOFILE(QTEMP/HLPPF1)
      OVRDBF FILE(TOFILE) TOFILE(QTEMP/HLPSV1)
      CALL PGM('your program name')
      DLTOVR *ALL

      OVRDBF FILE(FMFILE) TOFILE(QTEMP/HLPPF2)
      OVRDBF FILE(TOFILE) TOFILE(QTEMP/HLPSV2)
      CALL PGM('your program name')
      DLTOVR *ALL

11. Restore all of the objects.

      RSTOBJ OBJ(*ALL) SAVLIB(FASTBREED/HLPDEMO) DEV(*SAVF)
                  SAVF(QTEMP/HLPSV1) MBROPT(*ALL) ALWOBJDIF(*ALL)
                  RSTLIB(FASTBREED)
      RSTOBJ OBJ(*ALL) SAVLIB(FASTBREED/FASTBASE) DEV(*SAVF)
                  SAVF(QTEMP/HLPSV2) MBROPT(*ALL) ALWOBJDIF(*ALL)
                  RSTLIB(FASTBREED)

12. That's it.  Now anyone who has FASTBREED on their library list can use the
      Help Desk System by keying in the command 'helpdesk'.
