Re: rename one field in a ext. data structure in RPG-IV?

Doesn't the prefix make them no longer common?

RPG-IV?


Is there a way to rename one field in an externally-described data 
structure in
RPG-IV (v5r1)?  I am already using Prefix to distinguish between multiple 
DS's using
the same external definition, but there are common fields defined with the 
same name
in different external definitions, and I have three DS's for three 
different
external definitions that have a common field defined in each.

Better yet, if there's a way to tell the compiler to ignore a certain 
field in the
DS, that would work too, since I'm not using the field in question.

TIA, GA
