Help! (Multidimensional Array)

 >> RPG doesn't directly support multidimensional arrays but you can easily
....

As of V5R2 it sorta kinda does since you can have an array at the DS level
and the DS in turn can contain an array.

Like so:

     D ArrayDim1       DS                  Dim(99) Qualified
     D    ArrayDim2                  20a   Dim(99)

Elements are referenced as ArrayDim1(x).ArrayDim2(y)

Since you can also nest one DS inside another (via the LIKEDS keyword) you
can have as many dimensions as you want.
