Short Description Screensurfer ASP returns "NULL"

Description
I'm connecting to the toy mainframe with surfserver direct. 
And everything works fine. When I connect through 
Surfserver ASP it works fine.

Then I go into devcenter and change a screen, not content, 
just the layout (Don't show lines 1 - 10). When I connect 
through surfserver direct it works fine and displays the 
new way.  When I connect through Surfserver ASP all I get 
is "NULL".  No error message, no nothing, at that point 
none of the surfserver sessions will work through the 
Surfserver ASP component.

Any help?

Comment
John, when you coded for to not show lines 1 thru 10, how 
are you passing the data back thru our COM object to ASP?  
Are you using the <teresult html> tag?  Remember that when 
using our COM object you can do straight pass thru 
emulation using our default.asp page we provide or if you 
want to, code a Screensurfer transaction to display part of 
the screen and pass the information back in the base 
recordset.  For example:

<TERESULT HTML Name="ScreenText">
 <PRE><TEAREA 1 1 24 80 READONLY></pre>

If this is not clear, feel free to send an email to 
surfer@ie.com and attach your Screensurfer template file 
that reformats the host screen (.stml) and also the ASP 
page that you are using to display the information from the 
Screensurfer transaction.
