RE: date function-clarify

["Kahn, David [JNJFR]" <DKahn1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The three "reasons" I've come across are:

        1. Our 3rd party package is written in RPG/III.
        2. Pointy-haired boss will not take hear of it.
        3. Complacent programmers frightened of the unknown.

Of course, none of the above is really valid.

This code will work - I've used it.  But...doing the same thing using RPG IV
is so much easier.  It's seventh heaven, it's nirvana, it's ... the bee's
knees.  Jon, I too am puzzled and echo your question: why isn't RPG IV an
option?
