Re: Confused about V7

I think IBM knows its decision to package (screen) Designer in the AE was not
the one that their customers are in line with. I believe that they will change
that decision relatively soon.

As for the install, watch my Installation Experience podcast (available on
iTunes by search for "Cozzi") or directly at www.i5podcast.com then click on the
episode index under "i5 TV".

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Confused about V7

I have been following the threads about V7 and all and am confused and
concerned at the same time.

1.  The CODE that is present now for Green Screen and Print Files will
only be available to those who purchase the "Advanced Version"  True or
False?

2.  Those that would need the Advanced Version are probably doing
WEBSPHERE that has no Green Screens and few Print Files.  True or False?

3.  V7 can be selectively loaded to limit it to what is needed, leaving
off WEB stuff if not needed.  True or False?

 

We ordered V7 through our BP.  I am a little concerned about loading it
(or trying to).  Has the difficulty with compiling embedded SQL programs
been fixed (not being able to easily correct code because of the extra
RPGLE module it brings up)?  Has the problem with converting embedded
SQL within a DO/IF/For loop been fixed?  Has the way I have gotten used
to working around my ignorance going to have to change on a move to V7?

 

 

Thanks
