Mabuhay RPG gurus! A colleague has this problem, which I cannot solve, involving primary and secondary files and match fields. Here are the relevant code fragments and a sample output. A record pertaining to a particular key doesn't necessarily have to be in both files. SAMPLE PROGRAM ============== IPLNMJ1 01 I PLOYER M6 I PLOMKTL3M5 I PLOIGRL2M4 I PLOCSZL1M3 I PLOCVTL1M2 I PLOITML1M1 IINVSUM 02 I IVSYER M6 I IVSMKTL3M5 I IVSIGRL2M4 I IVSCSZL1M3 I IVSCVTL1M2 I IVSITML1M1 ---------- MAIN ---------- . . . CL1 EXSR PRTDTL . . SAMPLE OUTPUT ============= Cur Mo. Total Item_ Size__ Variety___ Market_PO_Description____ ___PO__ Shipmts CONC FOR DC OR DIRECT *1* 01160 12-46 PO EUROPE MARKET 1,000 *1* 01160 12-46 PO EUROPE MARKET 204 *2* 01254 6-10 J- EUROPE MARKET 1,000 *2* 01254 6-10 J- EUROPE MARKET 272 Sub-total 2,000 476 QUESTION ======== *INL1 controls the printing of a detail line. In the sample output above, lines indicated by *1* should supposedly appear in one line, lines indicated by *2* also in one line. However, as you can see, *INL1 is triggered twice, one for each file (primary and secondary), so that they were printed on two separate lines. Printing on every other setting of *INL1 also doesn't work because the records pertaining to a particular key need not appear in both files. Does anybody here knows of a technique that will print the summary of a record with details coming from two separate files in a single line? We are using RPG/400 on V4R5M0 (by order of our BDFL). Thanks in advance. -- Carl Mañoso "It is not real work unless you would rather be doing something else." [J.M.BARRIE]
