Re: Query/400 to RPG program

[Searsdon@xxxxxxx]

Why would you want to get rid of the querys? Are they doing the job they were 
designed for?. Without knowing the size of your orginization, it's hard to 
say wether that is a lot of querys or not. Unless they're real system hogs, a 
query is a quick and simple way to get a report to user. Most of the 
companies I have worked have hundreds of queries on their system. The nice 
thing about query is, with the right users you can even hand off some of the 
more simpler report requests to them and spend more of your time on the stuff 
that really needs to get done. Why spend a couple of hours or more writing a 
RPG report when in 15 minutes you can handle the most typical report requests?
