>Is it capable of handling subfiles properly?

Asking if it handles them properly implies that they will exist in the
program at all. If you're coding a new application forget about subfiles.

Think about amazon, buy, ebay, etc. Do they have a concept of multiple rows
on the page, sure, is it a "subfile"? Nope! 

I would (of course) also throw in ASP.NET with a OLEDB or .NET provider
connection to the iSeries.

No - I hadn't considered that.  Honestly, I had forgotten about that
path.  Isn't eRPG basically just RPG utilizing CGI?  Is it capable of
handling subfiles properly?

Have you considered eRPG or CGI  using RPG and use your browser as an
interface?

Thanks,

Hey everyone,



I have a simple file maintenance program that I need to create for our
inventory department.  In the "golden" days, I would just have copied
one of my RPG "work with" subfile-shells, modified it and been done with
it, but I want to provide them with a GUI.  I figured that this is a
simple enough program for me to finally get my feet wet creating a
production GUI.  Which language should I do it in, though?  I was
thinking Java, but it is slow and more for "web-enablement".  And I am
not sure about the production quality of VARPG.  Right now, those are my
only two options - anything else would require the purchase of a
compiler.  Does anyone else have any thoughts?
