Well, a lot of it may be there but is bug ugly via 5250.  For example the
data mapper gives you a nice visual  of relationships between files (you
are using RI aren't you?).

Like the following:

custmast -----|
              |-- ordermast ----|
ordertype ----|                 | -- orderline
                                |
                  itemmast -----|

Granted you could write a BUNCH of code to do this via green screen, but
who'd want to?

Like, get real, who uses nothing but a text entry OS on their desktops
anymore?  I gave up my old DOS pc years ago.

Well, that is what I was asking.  What is in Ops Navigator that is not
green
screen?

I honestly do not know.
