RPG and OfficeVision

[D.BALE@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I have not yet seen any responses to your question.  As to IBM supporting
Office, fergetaboutit, IBM's dumping it.  I believe that there are third party
products that help you migrate OfficeVision documents, for example, I'm pretty
sure that IBM has an OfficeVision-to-Lotus Notes migration tool.  I think I've
seen a migration product to Microsoft Word.  As far as converting existing RPG
apps that call on OV functions, I don't know what's out there.

Why not try a search in the MIDRANGE-L & RPG400-L archives?  Also, try the
AS400network.com and midrangecomputing.com sites.

We have quite a few RPG pgms integrated with Office documents.  Our resident
 expert in this area left the company a few years back.  I'm having some
 problems working with RPG and Office.  Can anyone point me to someone who may
 be able to help?  For example, the pgm I'm currently looking at uses the
 PRTDOC cmd thru QCMDEXC.  I know in Office you can type a 9 to looking at the
 print options, and then use F15 to look at the merge options.  I can then use
 a 1 for Query or a 3 for a database file.  But it doesn't show what is
 currently integrated with the docuement.  How do I obtain this information?
 Where I'm headed at with this: I'm try to set up a folder in our test
 environment.  But when I run my RPG pgms in the test environment, I'm still
 picking up info from production.  Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

We know from a previous post IBM is pulling Office off the system in the next
 release.  Do they still provide any support?  Are there 3rd party options?
 Are there any Office-specific mailing lists?  Anyone willing to discuss this
 offline?  Thanks again.
