Re: Graphical requirement for program

I don't mind a bit! Every mention/hit I can get when I am looking for programming work is a huge plus. Thanks.

However that example is for a progress bar, so the user can see what is happening at his/her terminal from the water cooler, for long running jobs. :)

VARPG did a great job with graphs but VARPG has grown pretty stale now.

Lately we have been using Google Web Tools and presenting graphs in a browser. Its great eye candy, and its pretty quick. Getting started is a major headache.

We have been tasked with finding a way to present
a table of numbers that is currently displayed by an
RPG program via terminal emulation as a bar and line
graph.

All users of the RPG program are in-house and using
MochSoft terminal emulation.

We are thinking of modifying the program to write
the data to a record in a file and call a PC program.
Then installing ODBC drivers on every PC.
Then writing a Java application to read that record
and display the data as a graph and installing that
program on every PC.

There must be a better way.

We are open to vendor solutions.

Thanks,
Lance
