Hi Wendy!   Is your program actually failing because of this?  Or do you
see this only when debugging?  In certain situations, if a field is never used
within a program, RPG may skip generating code to move data from the
input buffer to that field.  So the field would appear blank when debugging.

Another possibility, check if there is a field record relation indicator coded
on the input spec for the field.  (But does anyone use FRR indicators any
more?)

We have a reoccuring problem. We use RPG/400 on V3R2.  We've been coding RPG
for > 10 years....

Using interactive debug, we see fields being populated properly. We break at
the write (to a physical file) and one of the fields is blank.  Nowhere in
the code is this field being updated between the population and the write.

Any suggestions ??

Thanks,
wendy
