I was about to call the QDBRTVFD API from a CL program but noticed
that the information I wanted was bit-encoded in byte 9 of the receiver
variable output. I know how to take the long (mathematical) approach to
determining bit settings (because I did it in COBOL back in the day), but
I was wondering if there was a more direct method available to CL
programs? Thanks.

Sincerely,
