Re: Interesting Programming Problem

I think more information is required from you before any further
suggestions can be made, for example.
How is the data held, for what the customer owes? Is it held in numerous
records for each customer, so you can read what the customer owes in
chronological order? Is it all held on one record, with multiple like
fields, one for each month?

I am sure someone has done something similar to what we need.

The monthly bills we send are broken into 4 sections and the money the
customers pay are applied to the sections in a certain order. The money

is

also applied to the oldest month first then progresses to the current

month.

Normally I would say a multi-dimensional array. However, I see that RPG
doesn't do it the same way as Java or other languages would. I hope I
explained this well enough. Any suggestions? Can anyone point me in a
direction?
