RE: Compile error when using field in a subfield data structure

Some people just don't want to learn...
I bet when they came from a S/36 to the S38 or iSeries they didn't want to 
adopt this subfile thingy either.  Why, when arrays work perfectly fine? 
Geesh I hate that mentality.

Han:
I don't know I would want to volunteer myself to ask for restriction on 
coding standard :).

Bob:
+=, -=, ++... are also not allowed.  Too c like.  Scare the head out of 
most people when it is too c like :).  Other than that, I think I'm okay 
to use all the rest of stuff RPG is capable of.

Actually, I find it strange that your shop standards would disallow 
free-form calcs but allow other even more recent functionality like 
fully qualified names. If you want to fully take advantage of deeply 
nested data structures, it would seem that free-form calcs is pretty 
much a co-requisite. You might want to reconsider your shop coding 
standards one way or the other. That is, either allow free-form calcs or 
also disallow defining subfields with LIKEDS or LIKEREC.

Cheers! Hans
