That is FAR too sensible - how could you suggest such a thing!!

Hello, all:

No one else has mentioned this yet, so here goes ...

Why not just license the ILE compilers, and any time you need to "touch"
an old OPM RPG/400 program, just use the CVTRPGSRC command to convert it
to RPG IV first, then compile it with CRTBNDRPG, with ACTGRP(*DFTACTGRP)
... (aka. "OPM compatibility mode")... This way, your shop should be
able to migrate everything to ILE smoothly, while saving money by not
needing to license the OPM compilers at all.

Does this not "make sense" and if not, why not?

Thanks,

Mark S. Waterbury
