Re: RPG Conversion from III to IV

You might also look into the Linoma conversion tool.  It takes the IBM
converted output and cleans it up quite nicely.

Please share your thoughts on this conversion.


In general I don't do a mass-conversion; I convert one program at a 
time, when I need to do maintenance on it.  A mass conversion _should_ 
entail a mass system test, and who has time for that?

The major issue is not the conversion from RPG III format to RPG IV 
format; that's pretty easy.  The big problem comes when the staff start 
to use RPG IV without reading the manual; especially the section 
relating to numeric precision and intermediate results for EVAL.

Read the manual.
