RPG differentiates between tables and arrays.  You may use indexes or
subscripts to process individual elements of arrays, but not tables.  In
order to position yourself within a table, you use the LOOKUP operation.

Hallo, I've a curious problem like that:
In an RPGLE *PGM I define an intenal table named "TABPGM"

D*------------
D TABPGM          S             12    DIM(10) CTDATA PERRCD(1)
D*------------

the RPG compiler recognize the TABPGM such as a table but when I try to use
TABPGM through index

C                   DOW       i<=%elem(TABPGM)
C                   IF        TABPGM(i) > *blanks
C                   EVAL      DSTABPGM = TABPGM(i)

the compiler stop and say that "i" isn't a valid index for TABPGM.

If I rename TABPGM into PGMTAB the compiler have not any problem and all
works fine.

Any ideas?
