Simon,

Have always wondered if the following is possible:

We know that PDM allows us to create options etc.  Will it not be great if we
can add more options to existing IBM panels - like WRKSPLF?  I for one, would
like to create such options like CPYSPLF, or other options to archive etc. for
example.

Will it be possible to explore this option in panels that will be created by
users ?  Predefined options numbers can be provided ofcourse...Or is the whole
thing too much to ask from UIM?

just curious.

Hello All,

Since there seems to be a reasonable interest in a UIM guide I shall try to
create one in what little spare time I have.  I think an e-Book format is
probably the best approach but I will listen to those who desire a printed
copy.  I suspect a properly published book (a la Duke Press and Midrange
Computing) will take so much of the price in "costs" as to make it
untenable although I'm open to approaches from publishers.

I intend the book to start with the simple stuff (menus, help text, etc)
and move on to the really useful stuff (input screens, scrolling,
conditioned displays, and work-with panels, etc).  All code examples will
be in RPG IV with additional examples in C, and ILE/COBOL.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
