Re: Compile error

For what it's worth, to overlay an array onto a set of
fields in a file, like I use a technique that lets you
overlay even packed fields, or whatever else. It works as
long as they're contiguous in the record format.

Say FileA has subfields Qty01, Qty02,...,Qty12.

Code:

D FileARecd          DS        Extname( FileA )

D Qpointer              S    *    inz( %addr( Qty01 ))

D Qty                       S   5p 0  dim( 12 )
                                                based(
Qpointer )
