Re: Strnage compile error

Sounds like you have a physical or logical file named CUSTMAST that it is 
finding in the library list before it's finding the printer file.  Try 
renaming your printer file and see if that helps.

Strnage compile error






I've spent about three hours this morning trying to figure out what the 
heck 
my problem is (yes, I know what the majority will answer with :) ) with 
this 
program, and so far searching on google hasn't given me any clues.

I have an externally described printer file, it compiled just fine, when 
viewing it in RLU it looks just like its supposed to.

In the RPGLE program I have the following line to declare the file

FCustMast O      E                   PRINTER  OFLIND(*IN99)

However in the compile printout I'm getting the following:

RNF2086 40 a     000100  Device type of WORKSTN or PRINTER does not match 
external description; record formasts ignored.

I haven't a clue what I'm doing wrong here.

Below is the DDS for the printer file:

Any idea what I'm screing up?
