I had a further question, but it is probably not related to a
*ENTRY/PLIST conversion. Is the EXTPGM() keyword of use for converting
*ENTRY/PLIST?

The EXTPGM keyword is necessary if the PR/PI combination is being used instead of *ENTRY/PLIST for a program object AND the program is being created to run in the *DFTACTGRP, (i.e. using CRTBNDRPG).

EXTPGM requires a single parameter - but as my earlier examples show, the value of the parameter can be any old string. (Raises a Severity 10 compiler warning if the string value is different to the program name.)

However, the example you have shown on your webpage, (no EXTPGM keyword) will work perfectly well IF the program is created to run in a non-*DFTACTGRP, (e.g. created with CRTBNDRPG + CRTPGM).

Clear as mud?
