Tim,

Before you get too deep in theory, think about whether your program
containing your business logic can be used in a batch process. If it
can, then you've already achieved step one of re-engineering, and now
you can start thinking about procedures, modules, service programs and
the like. If not, then think about how you would strip your business
logic out of your 5250 programs.

Start small and build from there.

How does one go about "application re-engineering"? I just realized I don't
know how to separate the presentation and business logic. We have programs
originally written in RPG, then converted to LE mostly just to take
advantage of the newer op codes. They are not bound to other modules, no
sub procedures, no prototyping, etc. I suspect there are many shops like
this one out there. So if I was to re-engineer one of these apps, what
would it look like? Would it me broken into multiple modules, programs,
service programs, etc? I guess I'm trying to get an idea of a best
practices approach.
