Use a program status data structure in the program to get the user name and

job number and update a data area to hold the data.

Here is a sample of the Program Status Data Structure you will need.
D PSDS                SDS
     USRNAME                     254   263
     JOB#                             264   269

I don't know your needs but I would simply create a 16 character data area
and use it to store the 10 char name and 6 char job# and update it in the RPG
program.

Sample data area setup you will need.
D DTAARA           UDS
     USRNAME                              10
     JOB#                                       16

I like the technique, but this won't work as coded, since the same field names are in data structures. A move / eval would be needed, w/ different field names in the DS's.
