Re: PL/I for AS/400

[Pat Barber <mboceanside@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

IBM has pretty major "porting" facility that allows them to do
some pretty good conversions. I don't have a number but I'm
pretty sure Al Barsa or other BP's can put you in touch with
those folks.... I would approach those folks and they can tell
you exactly what the process will be and what your requirements
are. Trying to "learn" the 400 by your self will be similar to
teaching your self "How to Fly", with similar results....
