How do I debug a batch program? 

I know you can use STRSRVJOB and then use STRDBG. So what I did was put the
jobq on hold (test jobq so it is not a major thing to put on hold) so I
could get the job number. Then used STRSRVJOB on the job, followed by STRDBG
and was going to set a break point, but it wouldn't let me set one.
Something about "cannot perform this function when job is not active". Am I
doing something wrong? The job runs for about 20 seconds normally.

Thanks for any help in advance.

Mike

BTW this is a RPG program.
