Re: using an array as part of a multiple occurrence data structure

        Ah,   You had better use an INZ keyword at the DS level first mate.
        Your  data stucture is not initialized to zero.

        Hello:

        I am trying to use an array as part of a MODS, which is defined as
follows

        dsorttray         ds                  occurs(50)
        d   whatcde               1      8
        d   dys                          4  0 dim(275)
        d   hrs                          3  0 dim(25)

        i.e., an array of 275 elements, length 4, with no decimal places.
(for the
        record, I have also tried this using absolute lengths, with the same
        results).

        I am indicating the appropriate element for array dys with the
following
        field:

        d    d#           s              3  0

        using the calculation line:

        c                   if        dys(d#) = 0

        and I am receiving error MCH1202 - Decimal data error.  In debug,
the value
        for d# shows as 001; the occurrence for sorttray = 01, both
appropriate
        values given the context...

        I've consulted all the reference books I can get my mouse on, but am
still
        stumped.  Any clues out there?

        Thanks,

        Thom Randolph
