Get a new instructor.  Any instructor showing you screens prior to 
showing you how to read a database in RPG is showing you the complicated 
stuff prior to the easy stuff.  Unless, Allah forbid, you were off on 
medical leave and missed that part of the course.

There are numerous ways to read data into your RPG program to display 
onto a screen you designed.

You can access the data in the traditional way - reading the file with 
a combination of OPEN, SETLL, READ loop, and CLOSE.  Since you create 
the file in this RPG program you will have to OPEN and CLOSE it yourself.  
For further information on this try:

Another method is to use SQL to read the file.  By using a combination 
of:  DECLARE CURSOR, OPEN CURSOR, FETCH loop, and CLOSE.  For further
