and it would also be a problem in Implementer - I
would have to remove the original RPG program from
Implementer and add it again as an RPGLE program, causing
even more work.

Have you asked MKS about this? I'd be surprised if you actually needed to do this. Converting an
object from RPG III to RPG IV is a pretty common task now-a-days.

I know in Aldon, you simply check out the object and change the attribute from RPG to RPGLE.
Optionally, you can move the source from QRPGSRC to QRPGLESRC, but that's optional since you can have
any source member in any source file you'd like.

Aldon is perfectly capabile of dealing with the fact that two version of the object exist, an RPG III
one and an RPG IV one, while you promote the object forward to production. Once the RPG IV version is
in production, then the object only exists as RPG IV, though the RPG III source might have been
archived.

Actually, the same functionality covers converting a DDS defined *FILE object to an SQL DDL defined
*TABLE, *VIEW, *INDEX object.
