RE: testing a value in specific position of the field

Actually you can substring, like this:

  If (%subst(usr1:5:1) = 'Y');
   // Do your thing.
  endif;

Subject: testing a value in specific position of the field

I have a file:

 

User      User

ID         Flag

usr1      YNNNYNNYYY

usr2      NYNYNNYYNNN

usr3      NYNNYYNYYY

 

I need to create a report that will print all the records with 'Y' in
position 5 of User Flag field. I'm new to RPG, understand that I need to
use runtime array, having problems with details. Any help greatly
appreciated.
