Dave,

Assuming you've got more than a couple programs to convert....

Consider getting Linoma's RPG Toolbox, it includes and RPG Wizzard
that you can use to convert from RPG III syntax to RPG IV.

Price is quite reasonable, IMO.

hi all,

After converting an OPM, I have, for example, this :

C MOVEL WPLVDB IPLVDB

where factor 2 is 10A and the result field is date.

I have around 50 pgm to convert. Up till now, I've been testing and
when a program crashes I look in the compile list for date fields.

This is obviously not enough, I need to go through all the programs
and check all the statements involving date fields. Is there anyway I
can generate this information?
How should the line above be rewritten (bearing in mind I have orders
to make the minimum amount of changes!) ?

Thanks
