:Hi all,
:
:I've been searching and searching but...
:
:Can anybody supply the general rules for including, and
:reading, a source physical file in an RPGLE program.?
:
:I understand the requirements for the preceding CL override.
:It's the RPG setup that's throwing me... Can the file be
:defined as 'E'xternal or does it have to be 'F'ixed with 'I'
:specs? (I haven't used 'I' specs in so long...) Do I have to
:rename the record format? (since it's the same as the file
:name and the compiler doesn't like that!)
:
:Thanks for your time and assistance,
:"The Captain"
