In general, RPG tutorials are not available as web sites or freeware.
Perhaps http://www.texas400.com comes close though.

Regarding the program you're modifying, if you want some help with it,
you should probably start a new thread.  Post some code and a
description of the error/condition you're observing.  Be specific as
to what you tried and what happened.  The more specific you are, the
better chance you'll get an answer that works in your situation.  Do
take the time to refer to the RPG manuals at
http://www.iseries.ibm.com/infocenter if you have the slightest doubt
about what an operation code or BIF is supposed to do.  I've been
programming in RPG since 1978 and I often refer to the manuals.
They're references mostly and not tutorials, but it's surprising what
you can learn by reading a snippet of code and looking up every line
in the manual.
