RE: Converting programs

[Pascal Bellerose <pascal.bellerose@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well sometimes you don't want things to be like they are, but you don't have
time to change them, And I don't know why you say that there is no cycle in
VARPG.  Ain't this language as all other languages processed in sequenced
order?  ain't that a cycle?  And if you meant the RPG cycle, why there
wouldn't be a reading cycle in VARPG?  If so, why is it still RPG? doesn't
it mean Report Program Generator?  Please explain it to me 'cos it's an
important detail you're discussing there.

thanks

 >> It is ugly, the screens are crowded, and it is still cycle-driven, not
event-driven.

Booth - you've got me real confused with this statement.  First - there is
no
cycle in VARPG.  You can _only_ write event-driven code.  Second - as to the
screens being crowded, the imported screen are fully editable so if they are
crowded it's 'cos you choose to have them that way.
