This module teaches you how the existing application green screens, command keys and help panels work and look before you start using the WebFacing Tool to convert it. You will become familiar with the 5250 screens and the behavior of the application so that after conversion with the WebFacing Tool you will then be able to compare the 5250 and the Web user interface.
