Re: IFS programming questions

Steve,

It depends which language you are going to use: RPG or CL.

Using CL you canuse a command (with a CPP in RPG) to list all objrects in
a dir to an outfile and the use good ol' OPNQRYF.

In RPG you canuse similar code and embedded SQL.

For some code on such a command see:

about the middle)

Regards,
Carel Teijgeler.

I know the way in a CL or RPG IV to see if there is a file that exists in
a specified path. But, I have a problem with a current project I'm
working on, I will not know the full name of the file. I will only know
the first 4 characters and the extension. Is there a way to identify
the existence of a file or the use of a wild card (example: upld* or
*.dat).
