TAB will do the same thing, 5250 or web.

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

I had a client move from green screen to GUI in about 90 days by using the product from Look Software.

The wet behind the ears CFO bragged to his frat buddies that he got a Windows software system for very little money and he didn't even need to change to a new server.

We did not bother to correct his thinking. :-)

The goofy part was that I once noticed a user entering a piece of data, use his mouse to move to the next field, enter some more, and then click OK. He was taking four times as long to enter transactions than he needed to. When I explained the use of the Field Exit key and the Tab key, he looked at me like I walked on water.

Kids these days. Sheesh.
