Our reporting server is installed on an AS400 and i'm trying to map a path to a windows shared folder to get some pictures. This is the code i used when trying this on the windows server and it works good: APP MAP IMAGES 'W:\pics' APP PREPENDPATH IMAGES I need to do the same from the reporting server on the AS400 to this directory: /qntc/storagesrv/Pictures/Pics I can ping and connect to the server from the command line.This message has been edited.

So if the directory is there, is it session related? Does it exist for the WebFOCUS processes ? I'm not an AS400 person, but does the path need to be there prior to the WebFOCUS process being called?

it's not session related, as long as the proper user is accessing it, it's available on the system permanently. Unfortunately i'm also not well versed with the AS400 file system. version 8202M Reporting Server on Windows Server using DB2 Connect to access data from iseries. | |||

This is all set now, thanks everyone for the help. There was a password mismatch between the iseries and the windows server, so we're all set now. version 8202M Reporting Server on Windows Server using DB2 Connect to access data from iseries. | |||
