RE: Specifying Check for Range in ILE RPG ?

If you're using embedded SQL, yes. If you're doing traditional file I/O, you'll 
need do a SETLL and then check to make sure you're within the range after each 
read.

Subject: Specifying Check for Range in ILE RPG ?


Hi Folks,

Tried finding this in the online manuals with no luck. I could have
overlooked it since I am not positive what it would be called (didn't see it
in the Op Codes section of ILE RPG for AS/400 Reference). I need to check
for records matching a range in an RPG program. I have done this in a CL and
also with OPNQRYF but in this case would rather do it in an RPG program.

I am loading a work file with information to create "Bin Labels". A user
requests Bin Labels in a range of Row/Bin/Shelf. Each of these 3 fields is
3A. They will specify a starting and ending number.

For example they request labels for B2E 1A2 F99 to B2E 5B6 F99.

How do I handle this in ILE RPG, i.e. is there a %RANGE expression ?

Thanks in advance !

Chuck
