Re: Data Area Problem -- RPG400-L

If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

Look at the bottom of the compiler listing and see WHAT TYPE the compiler
thinks FshDte really is if it thinks it is not a data area.

The data area does not need to exist at compile time. Geez if it did we'd
all be in trouble!

You can not initialize a data area.
The *DTAARA DEFINE statement defines the field FshDte, so you have

duplicate definitions in your code. The first definition is a stand alone
field, and the second is a data area.

If you make the changes above, you should not have any more problems.
