Client/Server on the AS/400

I've been asked to create GUI screens that access the data on the AS/400. 
We are
currently not using any development tools, other than SEU (if it can be
called a tool
: - )  ).  It would also be nice to have a good tool on the AS/400 to
develop with.
I've been looking at BCD's ProGen Plus and the Client/Server option.  Does
anyone
have any experience with this?

Visual Basic and PowerBuilder have been mentioned.  Do these work well with
the AS/400?  What is the best data communication software to handle data
manipulation?  

I have also read, on this list, that in order to create stored procedures
using SQL
that the C compiler is required, which we don't have.  Is using RPG for
this
a relative simple task?

Thanks,
