Ask her to write in RPGIII a web based UI for her applications...
You do yours in RPGIV with CGIDEV2... First one done wins!

If she doesn't like the WEB UI approach, then challenge her to
something REALLY easy like writing data to a streamfile, or reading
data directly out of a network shared folder...

IMO: If she's resisting RPG IV, then there's no way in the world she would embrace stream files or a web ui.

Also IMO: It is a software developers _JOB_ to learn new techniques & technologies. There is no other way to advance the companies systems than to move them forward. Anyone who is unwilling (or unable) to learn new concepts should be respectfully shown the door.
