Re: cannot find printer file defined field

Douglas,
  Fields defined as OUTPUT only (ie: in a printer file) can not be implicitly 
referenced as a DS subfield.

When I attempt to create the module I get a SL 30 error telling me that it 
cannot find field PRTTXTAMT yet it is defined within the printer file 
appropriately.

Here is a part of the RPG source:
FAPCHKPRTF O E PRINTER OFLIND(*IN99) 
DCVTNBRTOWORDS PR 200 
D 15 0 VALUE 
DMYNBR S 10S 2 
DMYWORDS S 50 
Dmystring s 75 
Dmydec S 2 2 
Dmycents s 2s 0 
Dmycentstring s 10a 


Do I need to move the F spec below the prototype declaration?



If you bought it, it was hauled by a truck - somewhere, sometime.
