To load the data into an array, you have to read the data anyway. So why
bother with an array.
If the data is held in multiple records, then it should be easy to create a
logical (if one doesn't already exist) so that you can read the data
chronologically.
Like I said, more information is required.

This i am not sure of. I am asking this for a co-worker of mine. I
figured
we could load it into an array or something as needed.

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?
