Seacrest is able to do the OV conversion too and I think they are one of the biggies in doing this. We use them for "green screen" email and they are great to work with !

Indianapolis, IN -----Original Message----- From: midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Al Barsa Sent: Thursday, December 18, 2003 5:18 PM To: Midrange Systems Technical Discussion Subject: Re: Al Barsa on OV/400 and ptf's This is a relatively old story, and at some point or other, IBM slipped us V5R2 PTFs that would allow OV to run. Previously, RSTLICPGM would not restore it. This allowed a lot of customers to go to V5R2 and use newer hardware. You know, IBM went to a lot of pain in the late eighties to push OV/400, and when they were moderately successful. I had one customers with 600 pages of help text in OV. We moved them from OV to TextManagement/38! Some of the software vendors that were tied to OV, developed proprietary packages to move them to M$Word. I know that HTE has one.
