Ok Mirko thanks for the explanation.

Another question, the (UNO Runtime Environment) also can't
help me with
this problem?

No, the API lets you access OOo programmatically, but you
need OOo
installed first.  Without OOo, you have an API without any
implementation, so you can't do anything with it.

What you could do is install OOo on another server, say
Linux or
Windows, and connect to it from the AS400 using the Java
API.   But you
do need OOo installed somewhere.

Hope this helps

Mirko

No, the URE is purely a component model, it won't give you
any
functionality.
