RE: Java education

Hi Michael,

There's a great book called "Java for RPG Programmers".  I read this
book when I was first learning Java.  If you have a basic understanding
of RPG ILE, this book does an excellent job of relating the two
languages.  I thought it had helped me a lot.

Ron,

    Thanks for the info.  This sounds like something I might want to
consider.  In the mean time I found a course on the IBM web site that
sounds
kind of interesing.  It's course code # JA321 and is entitled
"Introduction
to OO Java Development for Procedural Developers Using Eclipse".  It
last
4.5 days, and seems to cover a lot of topics regarding Java.  I'm
wondering
how good this class is, and if it would be a good place to start
learning
Java.
