  • #021 - Set up an RPG program to feed a data source for a NAB widget

    SUMMARY:

    In this session we demonstrated how to set up an RPG program to feed a data source for a Valence NAB widget. This pre-execution concept can be used to adapt an already-existing RPG program, such as one being used to create printed output, to send the same records to a grid in a web app.
