Hi,

In this example, gDS is not being filled by wDS. Is it because wDS is qualified?

D wDS DS LIKEDS ( gDS )

gDS = wDS;

I thought it would be the same as a MOVE operation from one character field to another.

What's the correct way to achieve this? Must I qualify gDS? I wanted to avoid that for a particular reason.

Thanks
