RE: Looking for Old Training Material

Thanks to everybody who sent me very useful links and documents.
So I only have to filter what to share with the trainee and what to
recommend the trainee to read.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Subject: Re: Looking for Old Training Material

FWIW my long time IBM I partner Doug Stevens wrote a comprehensive online
IBM I Administrator/Operator Training course for the purpose of training IT
folk in the ways of the IBM I.

Doug has amassed forty years of experience in all aspects of IBM Midrange
systems and is well suited to craft and lead such a course.

It is current through V7R1 and he is in the process of updating it to V7R3.

For those of us who work on IBM I (for me 41 years now) I know that much of
the material is still appropriate for older versions of the OS.

In addition, I recommend the __IBM Library Server Library__. Same as
my parents, IBM doesn't throw much away.

Here's the link -
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr/LIBRARY

In the search box there, I entered RPG/400 and pressed Enter - can we
say "wayback machine"?

Once in a book, it might be possible to download as a PDF. This is the
old BookManager stuff.

If there's isn't and active PDF link, then take the option to print,
select all sections, then use something like Cute PDF to "print" it to
a PDF

Brigitta,

Have a look at the mcpressonline.com bookstore. They published a lot
of books over the years. I've just found "The As/400 Programmer's
Handbook" on my bookshelf. Published in 1998 for V4R2.

The pcpressoneline folk may have some old books lying around, maybe,
if you ask them.

Hi guys,

I'm looking for old training material for a new trainee, respective

* IBM i/AS400 Basics/Administration
* DDS described files
* CL
* RPGIII


I have only training material for all the new subjects (RPGIV incl.
Full Free, ILE concepts, SQL).


But the company where the trainee works still has a lot of old CLP
and RPGIII programs (incl. RPG Cycle).
