Re: How to do qualified?

Will maybe I'm reading wrong but ,   we have 48 month buckets three years 
prior plus current year.   YY has been set to 00 for 2000 if I take lets 
say a record that has a date of 2000 coming in and 

eval Z = 1 + (00 - 00) * 12

then 
     z = 1 + (00) * 12
     z = 1 * 12 
     z = 12 

that starts in second year 12 - 24 also not sure but should it not be 
contain in (add) or does RPG know + goes before *

 eval Z = (1 + (00 - 00)) * 12 

so addition happens first  oooohhh wait

thanks cause I am now thinking along these lines, how about this 

eval Z = (1 + (SSFY - YY) * 12)) - 11   cool thanks for the "brain kick"

Thanks

Hi Bill,

Hans already answered the data structure array part, so I'll just note 
that
you could replace your SELECT code with

    if    SSCTRY = CC
        eval Z = 1 + (SSFY - YY) * 12
    endif

You don't show any code to set Z if SSCTRY <> CC or SSFY > (YY + 3), so I
assume either you do that elsewhere, or the values you are dealing with
would never cause that situation.
