Re: using record to build a screen

["Carel Teijgeler" <coteijgeler@xxxxxxxxx>]

Keith,

If the literals on the screen are hardcoded; No, unlless you change the source 
of the DSPF and recompile. If the literals are stored somewhere in the database 
a small converison programme would do.

Prompt data (I assume) is stored in a seperate file. This can be done with a 
conversion or simple SQL.

Can you not name the 3rd part software (not JDE?). Perhaps others on the list 
have knowledge of that system.
