The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

"What the ... " - I used to teach this technique in my sessions on the
D-spec but have all but dropped it (and relegated it to notes pages)
because such a large percentage of the audience just glazed-over when
they saw it.
I encountered that difficulty too. My solution was to define the DS
name as follows:
/if defined(BASED_STG)
D Qmh_Rcvpm_RCVM0100...
D DS
D BASED( @Qmh_Rcvpm_RCVM0100 )
/else
D Qmh_Rcvpm_RCVM0100...
D DS INZ
/endif
D Qmh_RCVM0100_Bytes_Rtnd...
D 10I 0
... etc. ...
That way the "vast majority" can use normal data structures (the
default behaviour) and those willing to embrace so-called advanced
techniques can do so with just a little extra effort.
On later releases I've added support for QUALIFIED instead of
including the "qualification" in the sub-field name.
Not sure about the TEMPLATE support (wish they'd named it TYPEDEF like
COBOL and C though). When I get to VRM610 I'll experiment with it.

Simon Coulter.
