We use the same variable names regularly. Can't you just move the variable
definitions to the end, the way they compile wants?

Subject: *AFPDS Printer file - how to use same horizontal positioning
variable HPOS and vertical VPOS for multiple record formats
Sent by: midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx
Is it possible to use the same positioning variable names in DDS (and then
COBOL)?
I cant get past the DDS compile - it wants PFLINE to appear BEFORE the
positioning variables.
Any better way to do this so I don't need to have two positioning variables
for EACH element on the page?
Thanks!
