Jerry, your comment appears to come without any respect whatsoever. Somehow you attribute a real RPG programmer as one who uses (or has used) old methodologies. I honestly don't judge if someone is going to use matching records indicators. I know we have a couple programs that do, and we pretty much leave them alone. Do I claim to understand them? No. Every time I work with them (that is, virtually never), I have to research what's going on. Anyway, I just had to respond. Being unable to call yourself a RPG programmer based on a completely arbitrary method of coding is ridiculous.

Nancy, with all due respect, if you don't know "matching records," you can't really call yourself an RPG programmer. I'm not sayinf you have to have used them, but a real "Cycle" programmer knows matching records (even if they don't use them properly).

They claimed that you can only test an indicator, such as *IN01 or *INLR, in
an IF statement. (*in01 IFNE or IFEQ or IFGT etc 01 or ON). Any variable,
including a counter or a field of a record, can be tested.

The System 36 and 38 is a little before my time. SO are matching records.


Thank you,
Nancy
