HI An older program written in RPG uses the FREE opcode after it calles
a program. I converted the program to ILE but it won't compile
successfully due to this FREE opcode. Is this needed or something else
can be used?
This might help you:

While Rick and Keith are correct that it's often, maybe even usually, ok
to just remove the FREE, it's a good idea to try to understand why it
was coded. There are some cases where the application really does
depend on the FREE.
Of all the FREE opcodes ever coded, it's probably true that a large
proportion can just be ignored. But for a given application, it may be
the case that all the FREE opcodes are important for one reason or the
other.
