RE: RPG training

I am the only one.  I've received a lot of good information from you
all.  One even for a school here in Iowa!  I will be checking them out!
And the online links.  I'm hoping to find something fairly quickly,
hands-on so that I can get the basics down well.  I can adapt from
there!  I'll also get some of the books mentioned, so that when
questions arise I have a decent resource.
I think I've heard of Jon Paris & Susan Gantner.  Maybe I'll find out if
they have an on-site training going on for anyone around here and see if
I can join that group.
I really do appreciate the suggestions I've received.  Thank you.

Patty,

How many programmers need this?

You may find that you could get on on-site class tailored to your needs.

Thank you to all.
I am currently a COBOL programmer.  My company has converted 
to use the
parent company's AS400.  They are strictly an RPG shop, and I've been
asked to find classes to get me up and going in RPG.  I will 
check into
all suggestions that have been given!
Thanks again.
Patty

Are people confused? She doesn't want to learn RPG III, she just wants
to
learn RPG IV. The only classes she has found is for the old timers who
know
RPG III and want to know RPG IV.

I would do what some have mentioned which is a local college 
then maybe
a
converence or a book. RPG isn't really hard, if you have some good
examples
to start with you can get a good start quickly. Assuming you have some
programming expirience.

Personally I would learn RPG IV then RPG III only if
you have to.
