Yeah, cool! > --buck I couldn't agree more: my first recommendation is to find a subroutine that has been copied all over the place (c'mon, we've all got 'em!) Make a new *MODULE out of just that code, and the next time you work on a program, replace the EXSR with the prototype /copy and a myProcedure() call. Or you could download a tool library like mine and start by simply using some of the procedures. Little more than a RSTLIB and some /copys and you are suddenly livin' in ILE-land. Once you are comfortable using them you really aren't that far from writing them. Start there as a proof of concept and slowly work outwards. There is nothing saying that the old methods and the new methods can't live side by side in harmony, but give it a couple of weeks and I bet you'll never look back at the old methods... And Buck, isn't "viola" french or italian for "ta-da!"? :-) Smiles as he warms his hands over the fire... look at the pretty colors...
