It seems to me it can also convert subroutines to procedures, as well as other nice things that support the new syntax, even probably some free-form stuff. And you control which elements are changed - you can leave all MOVEs alone or convert to EVALs.
I don't work for them, just have liked using it in the past. www.linomasoftware.com HTH Vern At 03:58 PM 12/6/2005, you wrote:
Looks like you're going to have plenty to do. Taking the code to ILE RPG is relatively simple via the CVTRPGSRC command. Nothing like doing this type of conversion is really "relatively simple" however. My best bet would be to identify and convert the RPG III programs to ILE RPG first before trying to convert programs to modules and service programs, etc. I don't envy your task!!

Management wants to go to ILE. Some of my ideas: 1. Identify all parts used on the old system. Warehouse Distribution w/ Imports type of company. 2. Take all input screen online programs and see what parts can be written into a service program, procedures, modules, etc... 3. Do same for batch processes and report writing. Not sure how I would organize this effort.
