In COBOL, I could do something like this:

01 CODE128.
05 FILLER PIC X(10) VALUE 'ABCDEFGHIJ'.
05 FILLER PIC X(1) VALUE 'K'.
05 FILLER PIC X(5) VALUE '12345').

01 CODE128TABLE REDEFINES CODE128.
05 CODE128-CHARACTER PIC X OCCURS 16 TIMES.

RPG IV equivalent.

D MyDS DS
D 10a Inz(ABCDEFGHIJ')
D 1a Inz('K')
D 5a Inz('12345')
D Array 1a Overlay(MyDS) Dim 16.

Pretty much the same as in COBOL really.

Yes, it is. I just got tripped up on the specifics.

Thanks.
