It is possible with Java Applet. And as I knows with ASP, JSP, PHP. But I don't have an idea about vbscript.

Sure it is.

You might want to create a HTML form, enter a date and have the form post point to another page or use request.querystring to get at the data in the form.

Using ADO within ASP page, you could update your AS400 database.

Is this what you were thinking?

That sounds very interesting!

Is it complicated to set up?

What I basically want is a quick way of selecting a date and then the date being entered into a field in the AS400.

Will your method do that?

Cheers!
What I would do is basically populate a <select> tag in HTML with dates that you wish. When the user clicks on a date, and presses some sort of submit button, it could then fire off another page, pass the date that was selected as a parameter, and using ADO, update the database.
