Re: Qualified Data Area array

Hi Rick,

You can use the inz keyword to initialize individual fields in a data
structure or you could do something like this

D  DSName             DS                                   Qualified
D    Arr                                                       1   Dim(10)
D                                                               10
Inz('abcdefghij)
D
Overlay(DSName)
