It hurts just to look at it in fixed format.......

Ok, I know everyone is going to cringe on this one.

I'm having trouble converting from RPGLE free to fixed

format with this statement:

/free
fnd = %lookup(%subst(bighunkdata:gt:len) : xmlfield ); /end-free

I can't resist a challenge ...

Steve Needles already posted this solution that is guaranteed
to be equivalent to the original:
c eval fnd =
c %lookup(%subst(bighunkdata:gt:len):xmlfield)

In case that's still too free, here's another (untested)
version that I believe is also equivalent.
C *like define xmlfield temp
C len subst(p) bighunkdata:gttemp
C z-add 1 fnd
C temp lookup xmlfield(fnd)
10
C *in10 ifeq *off
C z-add 0 fnd
C endif
