Jon, I'll reply here, for a couple of reasons: 1) I get stuff wrong sometimes, so it'd be better if I say it in the open in case I screwed up again. 2) my point of view may be shared, or not. Others may wish to comment on comments. ----------- About VaRPG: I haven't been able to get it to actually connect yet for a lot of reasons, including the major reason of my not really being a guru of anything, certainly not of AS/400 connectivity. Hopefully the newest evaluation version will work. I just ordered it off the web site a few days ago. It said 3 to 5 weeks for delivery, or some such. Maybe that'll work out ok. About Java... I understood we'd get the enterprise edition with our new box last October, but it never showed up. Are you suggesting that VAJ is something that is easier to start frrom scratch with than is JBuilder? (remember, Jon, we country boys have to start from what is in the package. There's no guy walking around that can answer a few simple questions to get us started.) --------------------- I'll be a Son of a bitch. How'd you do that Jon? The Airborne Express guy just showed up with the evaluation copy of VaRPG while I was writing this. Guess I know what I am doing this weekend. :) Thanks for the great service! ----------------- In <5030200030074883000002L032*@MHS>, on 05/22/98 at 01:47 PM, Jon Paris <paris@ca.ibm.com> said: >>>I guess its back to finding out what we can do with green screens, RPG, >DDS, and CL. >Two comments: First, I'd be interested in knowing what it was about >VisualAge for RPG that "drove you nuts" - private e-mail is fine if you >don't want to go into it here. >Second, why is VisualAge for Java not an option?
