Todd,
I don't know about the speed of the client access api, but it seems that you
will have to read a dozen books with a thousend pages each to be able to handle
it.
To increase your speed of development, I would suggest you to use ftp. It is
_very_ fast on file transfer.
With ftp, you can also invoke arbitrary AS400 commands and programs, and the
whole is programmable: you can put all the necessary ftp commands into a
response file.

Juergen Ibelgaufts
