RE: Ways to load a subfile...

[Tom Daly <Tdaly@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think they're looking for "page at a time", "load all", and "expanding."

 |  Hi PGMRs,
 |
 |  (Hope this is "RPG" enough for this list)
 |
 |  I've been asked the following question by prospective employers...
 |
 |  "What are the three ways to load a subfile?"
 |
 |  I think that they are asking the question wrong, to the
 |  best of my knowledge
 |  there are only two ways to load a subfile, 1) write the
 |  subfile records or
 |  2) Initilize the subfile (filling it with blanks/zeros).
 |
 |  I assume that the question should be... "What 3 sources can
 |  the data come
 |  from to load a subfile?" (1. program generated 2. screen
 |  input 3. external
 |  file, data area, etc...)
 |
 |  Unless I've missed something along my route. Any ideas?
