Re: Creating RPG programs from DFU source

[Chuck Lewis <CLEWIS@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Just offer the customer a "fair" rate to write PROGRAMS to replace the DFU's :-)

Are they REALLY using THAT many DFU's ? What for ?

If it's I.S. needing access to files, they should get EZVIEW (from Help/Systems)
or something (you WOULDN'T want to give this to users...)
