Hi,
Yes, it's possible.
LF with a substring (example) :
A R REC PFILE(PFILEA)
A**** --------------------- data
A FLD01
A FLD02
A FLD03
A FLDSS I SST(FLD01 9 5)
A*
A K FLDSS
__________
Note:
#1 - All the fields of PF must be on LF.
#2 - In function SST you must select the field to be "substringed", indicate the
substring start (in the example 9) and the length of the substring (5).
#3 - Use the field as input ("I" in Use).
HTH,
Osvaldo
