Free workshops: Give your RPG programs the user interface they deserve!
ASNA Wings modernizes your RPG green-screen user interfaces quickly and leaves all RPG logic and file IO untouched on the IBM i. With Wings, not only can you modernize user interface cosmetics, but you can also add vital program enhancements at the presentation layer—without needing to change or retest your server-side RPG logic.
To learn all about ASNA Wings, please join ASNA's Roger Pence, for this fast-track and informative half-day session. Roger shows you what ASNA Wings is, and then interactively presents how to use ASNA Wings to give your RPG the user interface it deserves.
