I have my code like this :

SRefNo LIKE(aField) CONST

READ MyFile // The same file

// SRefNo now has the same value as DREFNO from myFile and I
have modified a parameter with CONST!


If you really want this to work (prior to the arrival of V6R1) then simply define a DS in your subproc using either EDS/EXTNAME or LIKEDS and specify that as the target on the Read. That will do the read into the DS and you will have divorced yourself from the Global file variable.
