There're two related issues:
1. The RPGLE program needs to be compiled with a DBGVIEW that you 
like:  I've been using *LIST because I like to be able to refer to a 
printed listing from time to time...
2. The interactive debugger for ILE is: STRDBG!  When you use the 
STRDBG command, you see the source and get to set breakpoints, etc. 
 Hit F3 and CALL your program and the interactive debugger pops up. 
 Sadly, the command keys assignments are different from STRISDB, so 
there's one more thing to get used to.

Good luck!
