Re: external *PRTF (was: RE: 'ILE RPG' or 'RPG IV' . What's the difference!!!)

Actually, Simon, that will tell you where the source was when the
print file was originally compiled, not where it may have gotten
moved to since then.  Though, I agree, it is much more likely for
the display file object to move then the source file object, I have
seen it happen on my system.

But, yes, it is partly a change management issue, but one I do not
have to deal with if I don't use print files.  There is just not enough
advantage, as I see it, in external print files to justify the additional
overhead involved.

Regards,

Jim Langston
