  1) How to run more than one AS/400 session

Just start another copy of TN5250. If different configurations are needed, make a set of shortcuts on the desktop to TN5250 and start these with different configuration file parameters. Example:

htn5250 htn5250.ini

The program will use configuration file htn5250.ini in the users application folder.

htn5250 another.ini

The program will use configuration file another.ini in the users application folder.

htn5250 f:\data\tn5250.ini

The program will use configuration file tn5250.ini in folder f:\data

2) Numlock Del sends a wrong value
Use menu - tools - terminal, field "Numlock Del key value" to define another character.

The AS/400 has defined the field as fieldexit required. Press field+ or field- before the ENTER key. Field+- are as default at keypad +-, and also elements the tool bar.
It is possible to disable the check in menu - tools - terminal

The AS/400 has requested a Help mode. Click on ? in the tool bar for details, or RESET (Esc key) to ignore the mode.
