RE: add file with same name from different AS/400 into pgm

[Joel Fritz <JFritz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think the file names are your problem.  You probably need to use a trick
to get the program to compile.  In your RPG program, give the files
different names.  When you compile, you can:

1. Use overrides to get the dummy names to point to the correct files.

2. Create duplicate objects from the real files that have the the names used
in your program.
   Create the empty files in a library you add to your library list for
compile purposes only, or do  
   it in QTEMP and compile interactively.

In either case you should rename the record formats, and in the driver for
the program, you'll have to override the file names to the files you're
actually using.

Thanks for the idea, but Im pretty sure the RENAME fails because there are
two files with the same format, and RPG cant figure out which one to rename.
Is this correct? 
Any other ideas?
