Any idea if we can use dynamic variable names in RPGLE?

One way is in the FAQ. http://faq.midrange.com Search for the words (file variable) The entry is 'How can I refer to a file as a variable?' It uses SQL. It isn't perfect, in that you will need to know quite a bit about the fields you want to retrieve.

It seems to me that most people asking for this functionality are trying to use XML. I personally love RPG IV, but I believe there are better ways to use XML than to hand roll RPG code.
