Nope... There was a aid to recompile RPGII to work in the S/36EE but no
conversion to RPGIII... There are/were several companies that offered
this
as a conversion package...

If you are getting worstation errors, the programs need to be recompiled
as RPGII and the screens regenerated... There were some minor changes
that
had to be done in order for them to work... Most would run with just a
compile.
