 >> So from what you say Jon, I should consider converting my applications
to event driven applications instead of the good old RPGIII cycle driven
pgm?

Absolutely.  You really have no choice. VARPG has no cycle and is every bit
as event-driven as (say) Visual Basic.

 >> From what I've tried with VARPG, it seems that we cannot compile an
ILERPG program that is the result

VARPG was never intended to be a vehicle for compiling programs from the
400 with no conversion.  It does however use the same dialect of RPG (RPG
IV) as the AS/400 and this opens the potential for extensive code re-use.
This is on a "cut and paste" basis though.
