     So it would seem, though I get CONSIDERABLE resistance here 
     whenever I mention converting apps to RPGIV. My manager and one of 
     the other senior programmers here look at me like I'm sprouting 
     horns or something when I bring it up. Their number one excuse is 
     "we need to teach the junior programmers RPGIII before we confuse 
     them with RPGIV." What a load! Both of the jr programmers seem 
     interested in IV, willing to learn it. Two of us are using it for 
     all new apps, occasionally converting from III to IV if (big if) we 
     can prove that the conversion adds value to the program. So far, 
     relatively few conversions have been allowed due to managements 
     reluctance to this "new stuff". BAH!

I guess that would be one more reason to start using RPGIV.  I have seen no 
rational reason not to switch from RPGIII to RPGIV (other than "It's a 3rd 
party package and we don't own it.")

John,
Would be sweet, if only Paula were using RPG IV.  Which, sadly, she isn't.
