Re: A bug?

Marco,

If you have a data structure defined in the program right before the /COPY
then this wouldn't be an error.  Your copy book would be adding fields to
the data structure.  I'd bet your service program (with the data structure)
was the RPGLE program and your calling program (without the data structure)
was the SQLRPGLE program that caught the error.
