RE: Green Screen vs. GUI

[Martha Bayer <mbayer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We use 6.0.02 full client server (since August) and find that some
applications just take entirely too long to move through the windows or to
minimize messages before continuing.  We are actully beginning to explore
opportunities to move some applications to green screen in response to
complaints from users.  Particularly A/P and A/R.  This is our first time
using BPCS so I can't compare to earlier versions.  But if I were you I
wouldn't push for full GUI.
