I found the easiest way to learn the basics of RPGIV is take one of your programs that you know best, convert it to RPGIV and then review the source. Do this a few times and you'll have the basics at least. Easier to read your own code converted then to identify what someone else is trying to do.

I have to start moving to RPG IV from my "comfortable" RPG III. I already do quite a bit of work in Java and have done stuff in C++ so, how hard can this be, right? What I'd like to is find out how best to make the jump in the quickest, most painless way. Most of the programming examples posted are in RPG IV so I REALLY need to move. I am not a "classically trained" programmer, so an approach or reference that is short on theory and long on practical examples is what I am after. If you had to choose one, and at most, two resources, which would you choose? Thanks. Looking forward to RPG IV !
