Re: VisualAge RPG for AS/400?

[Booth Martin <booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Two things that will interest you.  :)

If someone knows VB or VC++ then of course they'd use those.  However us 
old RPG folks already know RPG, so Visual Age RPG is a logical extension 
of our skills.  IBM provided the means for us green screeners to update 
our applications to GUI but we ignored the opportunity.

Visual Age RPG is for the iSeries.  It deploys on Windows, but it is for 
the iSeries.  The product builds either Windows dll's  or Java thingies,

Here's a couple of screen shots of VARPG applications if you are interested.
