 Is it possible to pass File  as a parameter in an RPG Program??

Hello to you! You could perform an override database file OVRDBF from FILEA 
to FILEB in the CLP program that calls the RPG. The RPG program would have 
FILEA defined, the CLP would override it to actually use FILEB. You could 
pass the file name as a parameter to the CLP, or perhaps retrieve it from an 
LDA. Or you could say IF COND(something) THEN OVRDBF FILEA to FILEB, else IF 
COND(something else) THEN OVRDBF FILEA to FILEC... etc... hope this helps!
