Jerry -

RPGIV code can be fixed-format, free-format, or a combination of the two.

Consider the meaning of the three-letter acronym - ILE represents an
environment, not a language.

The "Integrated Language Environment" gives you the ability to write a HLL
program which can use every language available on the system, i.e. the ILE
is the "glue" that gives /your/ ILE program the ability to utilize functions
/ methods / sub-procedures from service programs supplied by IBM or written
by you in any of the other ILE languages.

Correct me if I'm in error (seriously, it's been known to happen)
but I thought in order to be ILE RPG it had to use service programs,
methods/calls to other languages (such as C or Java), binding, or such.
That is, a program that was just, to say simply,
Read-a-Record and Write-a-Record was *just* RPG IV.
Or is a simple inquiry (data file, display file, some logic,
nothing else really) write in IV syntax an ILE program?
