Thanks, David,

We are AS/400 shops. What I understand that with AS/400 licensed users, the
WebSphere Application Studio standard edition is free.  I believe that WAS
includes VAJ/Java profession edition, please correct me if I am wrong.  When
you say that IBM is abandoning VA/Java, I think that VAJ/Java will be a
component as WAS.

Weining,

If you don't have an investment in VA/Java, I would consider Eclipse,
NetBeans, or something else. IBM is abandoning VA/Java so it will
not be viable for long. I would certainly not spend $3000 on it. I also

think that VA/Java is the best IDE available and have used
the enterprise edition for a couple of years now.

We have some clients who want to use VisualAge for Java as Java
development
tool.  The projects will use AS400 Toolbox for Java to access DB2 on
AS400.
The application is basically to process data which uses JDBC, no EJB.
The
question we have is: dose VAJ 4.0 professional edition good enough for
the
purpose or do we have to use enterprise edition?
Thanks.
