    * USERS AFFECTED: All users of Data Transfer                   *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When using Data Transfer with Enterprise*
    *                      Extender connection, the System Name    *
    *                      list is empty.                          *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMENDATION:                                               *
    ****************************************************************
    When using Data Transfer with a EE connection, the System Name
    list is empty. If the user selects the drop down list, the
    System Name appears at the 2nd postion, but the 1st position is
    empty. This error does not occur when using a LLC2 or TCP/IP
    connection.
    

Problem conclusion

  • PCSFT5.EXE has been changed to correct the Data Transfer drop
    down list. In a conditional statement for SNA connections, if
    the select System Name combo box fails, the return code is
    negative and it causes this problem. The solution is to not
    perform the combo box selection function when the default System
    Name is empty and the return code for checking the combo box
    selection needs to be initialized.
