C'mon guys. RPG is a good procedural tool for data base access. It's like Fortran and Cobol--ancient and probably has a long future. Doesn't mean that it's the best tool for everything. Having a procedural mindset, I find it a lot easier than SQL for a lot of things, particularly subtotals and crosstabs, but despite my boss' version of Tetris, it's not a real good language for video games or image manipulation. > -----Original Message----- > From: Schenck, Don [mailto:Don.Schenck@WL.com] > Sent: Monday, January 10, 2000 10:06 AM > To: 'MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com' > Subject: RE: Have you read this? > > > You have a good point: RPG is SUCH a modern language ... so > highly regarded, > too. > > </SARCASM> > > > -----Original Message----- > From: L.
