Boy, that's a surprise to me, I always thought you needed SQL/400 to embed
in HLL's.

Of course, you don't need SQL installed if you are just embedding SQL in RPG
since this is supported as a native feature in OS/400.

Patrik, in order to do as Brian suggests you would need the SQL Development
Kit (5769-ST1) installed on your system. Basically, SQL would take the
place of a loop that reads your data records.  As part of the SELECT
statement, you would code an ORDER BY clause which would place all the
records you want in a "result set" in the order you desire.

Then you would load the subfile as you would normally. To get the
individual records (or rows) from the result set you would use an SQL FETCH
statement followed by an RPG WRITE to the subfile.

Here is a sample program (originally form Brian Parkins) that is used in
the IBM Learning Services cours that teaches how to use Embedded SQL.  The
fact that you can create a sorted set of records with a single line of code
is only one of the many powers of SQL.
