If the function of the Assembler programs is related to system functions,
check out using API processes identified with the OS.  If the programs are
processing business rule functions, the Object Oriented nature of ILE should
allow for replacing the assembler programs.  The answer really does depend
on what the programs are trying to accomplish.

Thanks Terry. That is a good resource.

Here's another migration question for you (and anyone else that wants to 
chime in).

What is the equivalent of Assembler on iSeries? Correct me if I am wrong, 
but it is my understanding that there is no Assembler on iSeries. We have 
several callable utility sub-routines that are written in Assembler. The 
reason Assembler is the best choice for these things on the mainframe is its

efficiency and speed for things that are called many times by many programs.

So if these routines have to be rewritten, what language would be best 
suited?
