I have been reading the IBM online manuals. Is there some way to explain it in laymens terms? For example. (I don't work in a perfect world). I want to write a simple Q&D program, to inspect a file that comes from the warehouse management system, PKMS. Sometimes the guys in the warehouse enter an incorrect volume amount, or a file there had bad data in it. When the shipment info comes up to EDI, I visually can see that there are some problems with the data that the customer will reject, or worse, we would be telling the customer to being 3 trucks instead of 1. (For those familiar with EDI I am referring to the 753). Anyhow, I would write a final check program to make sure that the volumes make sense to the weight of an item. This is done by looking up the weight of the style, multiplying by qty, cartons, etc... In traditional RPG, this is a very simple program. You are reading the file that contains shipment info that will go into the EDI process. You are taking the style number and for aguments sake, chaining against a logical that has the style number as the key. When there is a problem encountered, you produce an error warning listing, but you also go ahead and correct the data as described above regarding the weight. In ILE, how would this simple program be accomplished? "Hall, Philip" <phall@spss.com> wrote:Rob, > I am reading about ILE and I cannot get a handle on it. What source(s) are you reading about ILE from ? Perhaps we could suggest other material to you. --phil _______________________________________________ This is the Midrange Systems Technical Discussion (MIDRANGE-L) mailing list To post a message email: MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo.cgi/midrange-l or email: MIDRANGE-L-request@midrange.com Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
