It's been a lot of years since I worked with matching records. Peering through the cobwebs it seems to me that if you want only one line printed at L1 you will need to add MR to the EXSR condition. It's possible that there won't be a matching condition so you will need to add a L1NMR condition also. This is where it gets fuzzy. Hopefully someone else has more up to date experience.

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).
