Since people are offering alternate solutions, PSC/400 can take any
interactive program and convert it automatically into a batch program which
can then be invoked by any other program.  If the idea is to walk through
the screens (as with a screen scraper) it can be done relatively easily with
PSC/400.  Not only that, you can use hidden fields to communicate with the
caller in case you need to add additional functions that won't fit on your
original screen.  This capability is unavailable to a screen scraper.
