Re: Subfiles in a nutshell

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Also speaking for myself, I believe Mr. Phillips has been out of work for 
some time and has recently stated (or at least suggested) that he's finding 
some opportunities. The Application Display Programming manual you cited is 
all he needs.

So, learn the keywords that apply to subfiles. And try to find a system to 
practice a little - I think Buck Calabro or someone on the list has a 
system where time can be rented reasonably (I don't remember the context, 
so can't suggest what to search on in the archives). Then take the examples 
and type them in yourself, not copy-paste.

I just hope Rob P. has actually used these in the past - trying to learn a 
few buzzwords to get through an interview usually won't work, and, if it 
does, will come back to bite you when your employer finds out you oversold 
yourself. I know.

Job-related stuff may be get better results posted on that other list.

Good luck to Rob P.
Vern
