HI Is there a way to refer to a field, by its name, in RPG ILE? I have a legacy file that contains rates by month. For each month, there is a field, RATE01, RATE02, etc.

I would like to be able to check the name of tbe field and then know that I need to find say RATE07 since we are in July.

TIA,
Adam
