Do you know how to code these in the new free-form style?If you answered No to any or all of these questions then this is the session for youJon will give you a basic introduction to all of these topics and show you practical examples of their usage. He'll also include examples of the latest enhancements for coding nested Data Structures that makes their structure much more obvious.P.S. We should also mention that some of the basic techniques discussed here are the technical underpinnings needed to fully utilize RPG's support for processing XML, Open Access, and will almost certainly form the underpinnings for many future RPG features.
