CHAIN + DS as result field

I don't understand why I can't do this :


I have a procedure that selects which LF to CHAIN to depending upon its input parameters. All the LF's compiled on the same PF.

Trouble is I seem to need a different DS receptor for each LF. When I try to compile I get RNF7595 "Position 1of the DS doesn't contain a subzone for a record format".

If I look at the compile listing of the DS definitions DS1 and DS2, they seem to be identical.

D DS1 LIKEREC(LFORMAT1 *INPUT)
D DS2 LIKEREC(LFORMAT2 *INPUT)

CHAIN LFILE1 DS1;

CHAIN LFILE2 DS2;

How can I get the result of the CHAIN into one common DS?

Thanks.
