All: Wow...such a response! Whodathunkit? Thanks to all...I appreciated all of the comments. Now, let me respond to a few... - OVRDBF comments: I haven't reviewed all of my source yet, but as I indicated before, most are batch CLs, so I should have fewer worries...either *CALLLVL or *JOB should work. The main thing is being aware of the issue (it has already bitten me enough times). I have fewer than 250 CLs to consider (plus any RPG programs that use it via QCMDEXC). - H-spec comments: I'll have to give that some serious thought. I do use /copy (I am in remission from a previous phobic period), but haven't used it for H-spec keywords. I do use it for prototypes, data structures (some using based(@) for reference purposes), application-specific constants, so this may be another great way to make use of copy books. - other invalid op-codes: I listed FREE, but DEBUG also is invalid. - other commands to watch out for: MONMSG (some messages have changed), SNDPGMMSG (*PRV is handled differently), TRFCTL (not valid), PRTCMDUSG (not valid), RTVCLSRC (not valid). - keeping it simple (Jon Paris): ordinarily I'd agree, but I don't want to keep switching between OPM-CL & ILE-RPG. The way my (home-grown) change management tool works, I'll be creating programs in a named activation group, so I think it is safer to convert all and deal with the issues. I feel comfortable doing that, but in another situation, I'd completely agree with you. If anyone else is interested, there is a Redbook titled "Moving to Integrated Language Environment for RPG IV". It can be found at: http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/gg244358.pdf This is where I finally found the other op-code and the additional CL commands to watch out for. I'm also taking time to chop out some dead-wood in this system: possibly 20% of the source members haven't been executed since they were created...some as long ago as 1989! (They must have been very important programs.) I know that I can't just delete based on last used date, but it's a place to start looking. Thanks again to all...feel free to continue the discussion. I'll chime in if I can add anything else useful. Bruce Guetzkow Information Services Director United Credit Service, Inc.
