Re: converting to service program etc

Many things to consider but on the surface based on info provided...

1) leave screen pgms as *pgms separates as they currently are.
2) are there any subroutines or procedures that are repeated among the pgms? Or similar code that could easily be combined to make a subprocedure out of with appropriate designated parms. If so these are candidates for subprocedures to go in new service pgm to be shared among the *pgms.

This exercise is not going well. Lets say I have 4 programs, 3 of which have display screens, and each program has one to four specific activities. There are two data files used.

1. Do I combine all 3 display files into one?
2. Do I compile the programs as modules?
3. Do I write a service program, turning every activity into a procedure?
