I've been listening in on this thread with some intrest as VA/RPG is
on my list of things to learn. In fact I'm attending a seminar next
Wednesday here in Minneapolis that covers VA/RPG. I am not a VB
person, so I do not have any idea what you mean by "I've authored
a set of ActiveX objects which deal in native AS/400 objects." Could
you elaborate on what these ActiveX objects are, what they do, etc.
How would they extend or improve VA/RPG apps.

Thanks,   Joe Teff
