Each line of text happens to be 75 bytes long. For processing reasons, I need to load the text lines into an array. So far the best I've been able to do is declare the array separately and at run time MOVEA OTXT to TXT for every record prior to processing. I'm sure there must be an easy way to automagically overlay the data structure on the array, and cut my memory requirement in half, but I didn't find any good clues in the AS/400 ILE RPG reference. Please don't ask me to redesign the file structure, because political and economic reasons prevent it.
