<div><p>iSeries™ Access
for Web provides support for accessing database tables on an iSeries server.</p>
<div class="section"><div class="p">A list of tasks that can be performed is shown below. Any of
these tasks can be restricted using the customize function.<dl><dt class="dlterm"><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Tables<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></dt>
<dd><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />A list of database tables on the iSeries server can be displayed. The
set of tables shown in the list can be customized for individual users. From
the tables list, the contents of a table or an individual record can be displayed.
Table records can also be inserted or updated.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></dd>
<dt class="dlterm"><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Run SQL<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></dt>
<dd><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />SQL statements can be run and the results can be viewed in a paged list
or returned in one the supported file formats. The layout of the result data
can be customized using the file format options. The results of the SQL statement
can be sent to the browser, sent to the iSeries integrated file system, placed
in a user's personal folder, or mailed as an e-mail attachment. An SQL wizard
is provided to help build SQL SELECT statements. SQL requests can be saved
for repeated use. Support is also provided for running prompted statements
with the use of parameter markers. See Database considerations for more information.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></dd>
<dt class="dlterm">Copy data to table</dt>
<dd>A data file, in one of the supported file formats, can be copied into
a relational database table on the iSeries server. Options are available
to create a new table, append to an existing table, or replace the contents
of an existing table. Copy data to table requests can be saved for repeated
use.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">My requests</dt>
<dd>A list of saved SQL and copy data to table requests can be displayed and
managed. Requests can be run and modified. Requests can be shared with other
users by creating shortcuts to them. Requests can also be copied, deleted,
and renamed.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">Import request</dt>
<dd>IBM<sup>®</sup> Client
Access for Windows<sup>®</sup> or Client Access Express Data Transfer request
files can be imported and converted to iSeries Access for Web format. Data Transfer
from iSeries server
requests are converted to SQL requests. Data Transfer to iSeries server
requests are converted to copy data to table requests.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm"><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Import query<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></dt>
<dd><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />SQL statements contained in Query for iSeries and DB2<sup>®</sup> UDB for iSeries Query Manager query files can
be imported and converted to iSeries Access for Web SQL request format.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></dd>
<dt class="dlterm">Extract server data</dt>
<dd>Information about objects on the iSeries server can be extracted and the
results can be stored in a database table. General object information can
be retrieved for any iSeries object type. The object information to extract
and store can be customized when the Extract Data is performed. Object specific
information can also be retrieved for the following object types: <ul><li> Directory entries </li>
<li>Messages </li>
<li>Software fixes </li>
<li>Software products </li>
<li>System pool </li>
<li>User profiles </li>
