"It discriminates against any field name not directly, or RENAMEd, from the
file."

I have not renamed any field from this file.  I am using EXACTLY the field names
in the way they are in the record layout.  However, I needed to move on with the
project and I re-coded my logic to use regular RPGIV coding and using just one
UPDATE operation code.  The problem is gone.  However, I am still unclear about
the way the built-in-function should work then.  Based on your feedback, will
this means that an array reference like:

MPPLB(RunQtr)

... will be invalid when using %FIELDS because the index "RunQtr" changes the
field to be one "not in the file"?  As a result, if I want to use %FIELDS
effectively I need to specify the "field name" IN THE WAY IT APPEARS ON THE
RECORD LAYOUT?

Can you (Rob/List) elaborate a little about this? Am I out of focus here?
