Re: iSeries Access for Windows - fast keyboard switching
Add a icon on your iSeries Access tool bar "JumpNext". Takes you to your "next" iSeries Access session.
Good LuckBill

Re: iSeries Access for Windows - fast keyboard switching
Hi Zuzik:
Alt-Tab allows you to cycle thru not only your open Iseries connections but any open pc job.
Hope that helps

Re: iSeries Access for Windows - fast keyboard switching
I found this on my second favorite website:
Alt/tab alt/shift whatever
You won't see any code in this tip, but if you're like most programmers who navigate
several Client Access sessions while programming, you'll find this tip useful.
It's not unusual for programmers to have many windows open at any given time. Those
that use SEU in Client Access sessions to edit their source frequently bounce from
one session to another. You can use the ALT TAB sequence to cycle through all of your
windows or you can create a shortcut that makes things simpler for you by cycling you
through Client Access sessions only.
In Client Access, select the option to customize your keyboard mapping. Pick a key
sequence (I like the Shift + End combination) that you want to use as your shortcut
and map it to the Jump Next function. Save your customization and from now on when
you want to navigate through your iSeries Client Access sessions, simply press your
shortcut key sequence.
Follow up:
The tip on Client Access navigation above generated considerable reader response.
Many of you wrote in to note that the Alt PageUp key sequence is the default keyboard
mapping for the Jump Next function in recent releases of Client Access. Others wrote
in to mention that another default key sequence in recent releases, Alt PageDown,
jumps to previous Client Access Sessions.
Still others prefer the Jump to Session function. This function lets you assign specific
sessions to specific key sequences so that you can navigate directly to sessions. For
example, some readers mentioned a scenario such as the following:
Session A is always an SEU edit session for QRPGLESrc.
Session B is always an SEU Session for QCLSrc.
Session C is always a session for WrkSplF.
The preferred keyboard mapping scheme follows:
Alt 1 -- Jump to Session A
Alt 2 -- Jump to Session B
Alt 3 -- Jump to Session C
I even received a note from a reader who customized the Client Access toolbar with
options for navigating between sessions! So many options...

Re: iSeries Access for Windows - fast keyboard switching
Hey ! I didn't know that. Kind of you Zuzik to allow me learn something new.
From my french kb if I do Alt-Shift once I get the english kb and twice I get the russian kb (cyrillic characters) because I configured Windows with those 3 keyboards in that order.
