5250 interfaces are alien to younger employees, and there is a greater learning curve.

I've never personally witnesses any retention issues due to 5250, although I could imagine it being a problem with developers.

Subject: Moving from Green screen app to GUI because of push back from younger employees?

I had a request to update our interface from a green screen application to a 'more modern GUI' because of an inability to keep new employees because of the look/feel of the green screen apps and the ability to more easily train them if the look/feel was something they were more familiar with.



I'm just curious if others have run into this as a reason to 'modernize'
their applications.



Thanks,

Ken Meade
