RE: %SUBARR compile error

Joep - I >finally< see my error:

I defined:
D bfMax S 5I 0 DIM(bfMaxC)
Should have been:
D bfMax S 5I 0 Inz(bfMaxC)

Doh! - thanks Jon, thanks Joep, thanks all...

Gary,

Why do you think you cannot compare two variables for the DOW loop? The loop is controlled by an expression that can contain as many variables as you like, e.g.: DOW ((a < b) and c = d) or (e > f and g = h)).

Agreed, testing a variable value against an array
without specifying the array element would be an error.
In this case, bf@ is defined as an Integer and is used as an
index on array bf#:

EvalR BrkFldRt# = %Subarr(bf#: bf@ + 3: bfEle);

However, your change DID work: Thank you!

Not sure I understand why I cannot compare two variables
to control the Dow loop. A quick read of ILE RPG
Language Reference did not penetrate my skull.

I admit, that is more prone to error, so using a CONST,
in this context, works fine for me.

Also, RNF5343 "Array has too many omitted indexes; ...",
in this context, was and is a confusing message for me.

Again, thank you for your help.
