Re: Overlaying fields within a data structure with an array

Sorry -

I did not correctly define my problem.

FileX has more than just allowance amount fields, but within it there are 5
contiguous fields containing the allowance amount. Because of this, I can't
define the allowance array to override the entire FileX record...

For example, FileX has the following fields:

OrderNbr
ItemNbr
Price
Allowance1
Allowance2
Allowance3
Allowance4
Allowance5

Now how do I do it?

dsfileX ds likerec( Irecx : *Output )
D FieldArray Like( PackedField )
D Dim( 5 ) Overlay( SFileX )

should do the trick.
