Hi all, I am looking at re-writing an application (currently in C) which uses HIS 2004 (Could use 2009 if required) to access mainframe transactions.

Is there a decent framework which I could use to connect and call mainframe transactions and relay any infromation into the existing system? ( I am developing in a .Net 4 environment) to remove the c coded requirement?

Hi Carl,

I don't known HIS very well but I remember that it can expose Mainframe (CICs ?) transactions as COM components so it should be just a matter of using these components from within your .Net app.

+1, that's accurate afaik. COM is directly usable from .NET. Docs: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee253023%28BTS.10%29.aspx
