with Jon Paris, System iDeveloper
An RPG & DB2 Summit Course
 IBM has "liberated" the RPG language! With this new flavor of RPG logic, we're no longer bound to the old columnar format when writing our logic. Join Jon on the quest for /Freedom - and learn not just how to write free format logic, but also why writing code this way can make your programs far easier to maintain. Learn to code /Free format logic the best way, not simply a way that the compiler will accept it! You'll come to understand why some of the rules for /Free exist and why at least some of them actually make the RPG language better (and why others we hope will change over time)!

You can create visually stunning and easy-to-use modernized applications using Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Word. Excel and Word are two of the most widely used end-user applications. Many people use Excel and Word as their primary tools for working with data. In this System i Network eLearning course, you'll learn techniques to integrate these Microsoft Office applications with your IBM i database. You'll see how you can access data on your IBM i and bring it into Excel and Word, and you'll also learn how to create data-driven forms that let users enter data that is posted to your IBM i.
Learning how to integrate Excel and Word with your IBM i database is one of the quickest and most appreciated ways to modernize your users' access to your IBM i. Rather than have users struggle with making database connections, you can give them prepackaged Excel and Word documents that provide the exact access they need to your IBM i.

Microsoft SQL Server is one of the most widely used database management systems. It is frequently deployed along with the IBM i in many companies. In this System i Network eLearning course, you'll learn how you can effectively use SQL Server to complement your IBM i database. SQL Server provides many features and functions that will help you meet your organization's needs for interoperability with your IBM i.
SQL Server does not have to been seen as a threat to, or replacement of, the IBM i. Instead, as you'll learn in this course, SQL Server is a great tool to use in conjunction with your IBM i. SQL Server is more than just a database; it provides a comprehensive set of tools that are designed specifically to work with relational databases. By linking SQL Server with your IBM i, you can take advantage of the tools available in SQL Server to meet your users' requirements for access to and analysis of data.
