Hi Tim,

I find I'm using the green screen less and less.  I'll address some of 
your points directly.

[...] viewing and updating data via SQL and
DBU, 

I've found that using the Quantum DB plugin reduces my use of DBU and 
SEQUEL quite a bit for this sort of thing.  I still use DBU once in a 
while if I'm already on the green screen.  The only downside is that it 
gets me hooked on some of the things SEQUEL doesn't do, like common table 
expressions, but I haven't figured out how to print or email results as 
easily as SEQUEL allows.


working with jobs

I still do this almost exclusively on green screen.


changing lib lists every 15 minutes depending on
which company(we have multiple on the same machine) I'm working with, 
etc.

I don't have to do this as often, but the suggestions I've seen from the 
WDSC team are to set up a connection for each 'task group', or in your 
case, each company.  If you want to change your library list on the fly, 
you can do that too.  This was one of the handiest things I picked up at 
the WDSC roadshow - there is a Library List filter under iSeries Objects, 
which works the same as ADDLIBLE/RMVLIBLE.


HTH,
Adam

P.S. - Hope you don't mind the Monty Python reference!  I'm sure you've 
*never* heard that one before :)
