Hi Dale,
Thank you for your comments.
But as I reported in another mail, I can't recreate the problem now.
The reason is unknown.

OK, I found it. It is *internal* device, inaccessible to the user. And
it is not for typical smart cards.
Strange, it is reported as connected to USB - yes, USB can be internal,
but IMHO the goal is to report external devices, which is important from
security point of view.

IMO, not a good way.
According to the standard, the integer value of 'ABC' is implementation
dependent. The IBM XLC/C++ Language Reference doesn't document how it will
be treated (padding, alignment, etc) as far as I can see.

It is and that is the plan for if nothing else works. And I suspect that will
be the solution. The other option is to determine if our automation product can
replace the autolog.
