Re: Data Arrays

[D.BALE@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I just remembered - Another neat feature is the ability to use an index on the
subfields.  In other words, using the example below, you could refer to the
3rd element of C as "C(3)".  (In RPGIII, you'd have to move the entire array
element to a data structure before you could work with subfields.)

Just do a SORTA on the subfield.
