+1 with a proviso - I'm not sure that the presentation mode has much, if anything, to do with being a "modern" programmer - web development can be just as clunky.

I think it's more to do with the tools and your methodology, not the UI.

So there is room for 2 discussions here - modern interface, modern developer - maybe related, not necessarily so.

Cheers

Free format C-specs are mandatory. **free would be a plus.

Prefer SQL but RLA does have its uses.

Procedures instead of subroutines.

I'm not sure 5250 programming can be considered "modern".

Subject: What is a Modern RPG Programmer???

Been asked to show how I am programming as a MODERN RPG PROGRAMMER.

Would it be using completely FREE FORMAT from F specs to C specs.

Embedded SQL that is just dropped in the code.

No /Free statements.

Would like the groups thoughts.
