1.0 INFORMATION FOR APAR SE52643

-------------------------------------------------------------------


1.1  Problem Description
------------------------------------------------

 Using the Quick Connect tool bar may give unpredictable results. 
 If used to connect, disconnect, connect multiple times, you may 
 see some data corruption in the Host field. The system name may 
 see an extra garbage character added to the end of the name. This 
 will cause PC5250 to think that a new system is being defined and 
 launch a wizard.
