Subject: Dear all,

Dear all,
I came across an article by Robert Cozzi, Jr at
http://www.mcpressonline.com/mc/.5bfbb72f
titled "Moving to ILE CL" (and before anyone starts saying that I'm in the
wrong forum, this is an RPG question)
I decided it was high time for me to start delving into creating procedures,
and binding and such. Plus the end result of this article would give me the
day of the week for a particular date, which is something that I need for a
project I'm working on. So - killing 2 birds with one stone.
Anyway, in the article/procedures/programs, what is returned is a numeric
value representing the day of the week. What I want ot return is the actual
English representation. Monday, Tuesday etc.
I attempted to implement arrays, but ended up with not being able to create
a module due to compile errors.
My question to the forum, how can arrays be implemented in rpg procedures,
if possible.
I have included the RPG module that I ended up with, and it should be
apparent what array I am attempting to implement.
Much appreciated and thanks in advance.
