Re: V5R2 Programming Benefits and New Tools

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

I would go to both the V5R1 InfoCenter, and the V5R2 InfoCenter and read 
the area's that either interest your IT Group, or you think they should be 
interested in.  Not knowing your shop (RPG vs COBOL, etc) there are 
several manuals that have a section "How this manual has changed" or some 
such name.

Now often, it has been my discovery that a little review may be necessary 
because some of the group may not be aware of anything since V2R1. Sample:
"In the past we had the following enhancements to RPG:
V3R2
 ...
V4R1
 ...
...
Now, (marching band starts playing) we've had the following great 
enhancements in V5R1 (list them) and V5R2 (list them)"

I think the RPG redbook did some of this for you.

Repeat for database (Yes, you may have to discuss SQL - get over it.  :-), 
CODE/400, iSeries Navigator, etc.

Hi list.  I have to prepare a brief presentation to our IT Group about the
virtues and new tools that are part of the new operating system level.  We 
are
on V4R5 so we have never "tasted" the good things of V5R1.  Can you guide 
me to
good links were this information is clear and simple to understand besides 
the
IBM pages?

I have this link:
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/announce/

But I know that there should be other ways to present this information.

Thanks in advance!
