Hi,
Can we put a message directly into AIx box local queue from a windows machine using VBApi script without using any channels? We donot want to install a queuemanager for each machine on windows. We are currently using MQ5.3 no CSD i suppose. IS it possible? if yes what we require to write the VBScript?

Clearly you'll need some channels or some magic - I recommend channels!
Check out the MQ Clients manual - each windows machine can establish a client connection to the AIX queue manager with only the client installed on the Windows boxes (client code is free, no license implications). You'll need a SVRCONN channel on the queue manager but just the one.
This is all laid out in the manual much clearer than I can manage here.
I've not personally used VBScript to send/receive messages - perhaps others can offer opinions / hints? _________________ Honesty is the best policy.

Hi,
If i am not using any Qmanagers at windows workstation how do i do create channels? Our client not interested to install Qmanagers on any windows machines. Without using channels can't we send a message directly to a local queue on Aix box using VB script. Our intension is to interact with the server from all windows systems without installing MQ on them.

You have to install the MQ client on the windows machines .... if you read the clients manual (as previosuly suggested) you'll see there are three ways to connect clients to qmgrs:
(1) MQSERVER environment variable
(2) MQ client channel table (which is a file generated at the server and made available to the client)
(3) options on the MQCONNX call.... _________________ -wayne
