Phew - that's a relief ... <grin>

And I agree with you about using a database for anything significant. See my other comment re how I would make it all a bit more obvious.

I short handed that Jon, but I do typically put my array name after the "**

aaaarrrrrgggggggghhhhhhh

And what is worse compile time data with no array names on the data.

Sorry but I _hate_ compile time arrays with a passion.

Or...

D Subset2 Ds 6 CTDATA PERRCD(1) DIM4)

HEADER
footer
FOOTER

Sometimes, things are just over thought...

As a slight alternative, how about this:

D ds
D ARRAYS 28 inz('hheaderHHEADERffooterFFOOTER')
D ARRAY dim(4) Overlay(ARRAYS)
D ARRAYA 1 overlay(ARRAY)
D ARRAYB 6 overlay(ARRAY:*next)

Basically the same thing, but it intersperses the 1-char lookup values
with
the 6-char return values.

This also allows slightly easier-to-view formatting of the ARRAYS
string,
to show each ARRAY element on its own line:

D ARRAYS 28 inz('hheader+
D HHEADER+
D ffooter
D FFOOTER')

Is this responsive to your request?

D ds
D ARRAYS 28 inz('hHfFheaderHEADERfooterFOOTER')
D ARRAYA 1 dim(4) overlay(ARRAYS)
D ARRAYB 6 dim(4) overlay(ARRAYS: *next)

The simplest way seemed to me to be using an ALT array, but that can
not
be done entirely inside the D-specs; leastways, I couldn't do it.
