The problem we have is that if we always do what we always done we always get what we have always got. I am in JDE World as well but we have the GUI version of the program for users who want GUI. I am forcing the issue of Free RPG as well. I have to look at what is left behind and did I leave it better for the next person. Enterprise can run on the IBM I which I proposed. I just think we always have to keep modernizing our code even if it is in baby steps.

Also don't forget the shops that are stuck with a green-screen ERP (JDE World in my situation). Can I code new apps in modern GUI? Yes. Do the users want it? No, not always. I've specifically been requested to code new apps in green screen for uniformity.
p.s. Yes, we would love to upgrade to JDE E1 (modern GUI version), but have an owner that has zero desire to spend the money.
Thanks

However there is the other camp , also very large, of programmers in shops that are green screen and going to remain in green screen; shops that are stuck at V5R4, shops that are in the 8th year of their 90-day transition to a "modern" solution, shops where the staff is sharply divided between The Ancients and >The Young Un's. These shops, for whatever reason, are staying with 5250 and, by default, still programming like it's 1992.
