I just want to say that when I first saw this subject line, I thought it
meant that the future of RPG was based on using STRPCCMD. I thought we were
all in trouble. :)

This sounds like a simple way for many on monolithic ERP systems to get
started.
Are you calling the Browser .exe passing a URL link?
Do you have an example of the CL?

subject: Re: Future of RPG

What I do in those cases (where I need a web page) outside of the ERP
system is add an option to whatever the existing menu
system is, that simply calls a CL program that uses STRPCO/STRPCCMD to

actually invoke the web application in the browser. That way, the

user is

still "working" within the same application menus.
