RPG IV

 >> .. the conversion process for gong from RPG III to RPG IV (not
 >> full-blow ILE) is about 5 days.  What educational resources did you use
to
 >> accomplish this?  Please advise.  Thank you.

I and others (John Carr, Charlie Massoglia, and Bob Cozzi to name a few)
offer on-site and conference style education.  I'm doing a series of
seminars on the topic for Midrange early next year plus there are also
conferences throughout the year.

If books and/or videos are your thing, there are a number on the market
from both Midrange and Duke (News/400) plus a browser based tutorial from
Advice press "Experience RPG IV Tutorial" which was based on original
material developed by Susan Gantner.  Which book best suits you needs is a
personal issue but my favorites are Bryan Meyers' "RPG IV Jump Start" if
you want an excellent RPG III to RPG IV transition book.  I also use Bob
Cozzi's "The Modern RPG Language" because the IBM manuals drive me nuts and
I find it an excellent teaching reference.  Both of these are available
through the web sites of Duke (Bryan's) and Midrange Computing (Bob's).

Of course if you want to purchase books you should always go through
www.midrange.com to help support this list.  Right David ?
