RE: Newbie question - Getting the userid with RPGLE

In all forms of ILE-RPG, you can put a "D" specification at the top of your
program after the "F" specs for the Information Data structure. It contains
a lot of information, but some general information is included in this
example.

D PGMSTS         SDS                  
D  PPgm                   1     10A   
D  NbrPrm                37     39  0 
D  JbName               244    253A   
D  JbUser               254    263A   
D  JbNbr                264    269A   

PPgm = The name of this program
NbrPrm = The number of parameters passed to this program
JbName = Name of the job running this program
JbUser = Name of the user
JbNbr  = Job Number

Subject: Newbie question - Getting the userid with RPGLE


I am very new to RPG and I have been searching the net and
experts-exchange in an attempt to figure out how to acquire the userid
of the person signed in and running a program with RPG.

I thought I could do it the same way as with a display file but that did
not work..

Would someone provide me a tiny bit of assistance here or at least point
me in the right direction?

Thanks,

Douglas
