Tim & Dana
Declare a file information feedback data structure for the file. 
In the data structure is a field which tells you the current member name.
And a lot of other things(actual Library name, Actual file name
(ie overridden),  format name of record just read, etc. 

You can do an OVRDBF QRPGSRC MBR(*ALL) 
and call your program,  It will process it as if one file.  You can 
tell by the data structure field which member you currently processing
and your program is a lot simpler.
