I've heard the same thing from many customers.

It is a problem we have had for many years now. We wrote this blog post back in 2012 that speaks to our experience at the bank.http://ibmsystemsmag.com/ibmi/developer/modernization/perception_attitude/ <http://ibmsystemsmag.com/ibmi/developer/modernization/perception_attitude/> Perception is _everything_.

I would say the younger generation is definitely more attuned to GUI and I have hear that statement.

There are options to quickly web face what you have or better yet, sit down and do a little requirements listening and you might be able to get by with just a few nifties like exporting reports to Excel or querying data.

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
