*ALL:
    Our shop has all our code in OPM (mostly RPGIII, some RPGIV), but
I'm wanting to move us forward, and have a program that I'd like use as
a "subroutine". This program uses 5 separate files, and does not pass
any parms - it is totally stand-alone.
    I've got a pretty firm grasp on RPGIV code, but am struggling with
ILE concepts such as service programs, pointers, binding directories,
etc. Can I somehow turn this program into a procedure or service
program? While I have your attention, what is the best way to learn
about ILE? I'd like to build a small app that uses these concepts, but
don't know where to start.

    Thanks,
