Re: Free format D spec question

Doug

You got good answers. This is all in new manuals - if you have RDi 9.x, it's there in very nice-to-reach form.

Otherwise, 7.1 InfoCenter had it as the updated ILE RPG Reference.

We'll all need to get familiar with those resources, methinks.

Cheers
Vern

I was able to get the PTF installed, and now the source is compiling. Now I have another question:

In fixed form ILERPG, I can define a field LIKE() another field, and tell the system to add two positions to it such as:


d ttl_grand +2 like(ttl_owner)


Is there an equivalent syntax for a free format D spec to perform the above function? I want to make a grand total field larger (by two) than the individual fields that it accumulates to prevent an overflow situation.

Thank you,

Doug
