RE: why can't I add a subfield to likeds

I agree completely Scott - but it isn't likely to change unless a few people
(Customers) complain publicly and to IBM about it.

The problem is that the tool that generates the RPG includes from (I
believe) the C headers was never really funded for RPG IV.  So what we get
is a warmed over RPG III version - hence the short names, from/to notation,
and use of the B datatype.

Maybe Linoma would donate a copy of their RPG IV conversion tool to IBM!  At
least we'd get rid of From/To.
