A guide to solving business problems on IBM midrange systems by mastering the hundreds of APIs available on the iSeries and AS/400. The APIs can be used for tasks such as extracting information from the system, delivering pages to the Web, creating dynamic indices, and writing interfaces between Microsoft Windows and AS/400 RPG applications. The accompanying CD-ROM includes source code for the sample programs discussed in the book. The authors are consultants who have designed and written software systems covering applications from retail to medical accounts receivable. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
I am Doug Pence. I am currently a technical editor for Midrange Computing magazine. I am also the founder and vice president of Computer Processing Unlimited, Inc. in San Diego, California. My association with the magazine began in 1983, when the magazine was a small technical newsletter named DataNetwork. My career in software dates back to the late 1970's. I have designed dozens of systems and have had the privilege of working on every IBM midrange system from the System/3 to the AS/400. I have worked together with Ron Hawkins off and on since 1979, and we currently share the research and development duties at Computer Processing Unlimited, Inc. We have also written two books and a video for Midrange Computing. The names of the books are Power RPG III and Power RPG IV and they focus on advanced concepts, tips, and techniques. We also put a video together called Converting your AS/400 Applications for the Year 2000.
