Specifically I have a portion of the outer data structure that I need to pass to a procedure as a parameter that is defined with LikeDS. I just create a procedure that takes the outer data structure and returns the sub data structure that I need. And wait impatiently for V5R2. :( >>> mnaughton@xxxxxxxxxxxx 05/21/2003 06:36:51 >>> Joe - Is your goal to use LikeDS, or do you just want a nested data structure? If the latter, you can use pointers: D ds01 ds D d101 5 D d102 5 D d103 6 D ds02 ds based(ptrXYZ) D d201 3 D d202 3 C eval ptrXYZ = %addr(d103) (of course, you do still have to explicitly define subfield d103) hth RPG programming on the AS400 / iSeries < rpg400-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx > writes: >Is there a way to nest data structures?
