I suppose so. Myself, I learn by running first. LOL. Trail and error.

Please respond to RPG programming on the AS400 / iSeries <rpg400-l@midrang e.com> I agree Michael. However, sometimes it's better to take baby steps before you try running.

In my opinion, you should think about learning how to create modules with procedures that are using the EXPORT keyword and then adding these modules to a binding directory. See my previous email. If you have everything set up correctly, all you will need to do is reference the prototype in the calling program, then at compile, the procedure will be bound to the program. I'm more than happy to help if you need assistance and interested in learning this.

PM Please respond to RPG programming on the AS400 / iSeries <rpg400-l@midrang e.com> Rob, I created a Physical Source File called QPROTOSRC and in that I created a member named PROTO_02. This has D PROTO_02 PR EXTPGM('PROTO_02') D num1 15P 5 D num2 15P 5 and in my QRPGLESRC I have another member named PROTO_02, also. This has /include QPROTOSRC(PROTO_02) D PROTO_02 PI D num1 15P 5 D num2 15P 5 D num3 S 15P 5 /free num3 = num1 + num2; dsply num3; dsply 'DONE'; *inlr = *on; /end-free but I am getting an error saying.. RNF0273 Compiler not able to open the /COPY or /INCLUDE file; directive ignored. Am I doing something wrong here? Jake.
