Re: Question on defining Alternating Array

I am not understanding the design choice. Would something like this work just as well for you?

D GL_Account Like(##AlGl) Dim(10)
D GL_Amount Like(##Bal) Dim(10)
D* ?do you really care? Alt(GL_Account)

D GL_Distribution...
D Ds
D GL_Account(1)
D GL_Amount(1)
D GL_Account(2)
D GL_Amount(2)
|||

||... and so on.

All,
I have a DS that contains 20 fields:
GL_Number_01 10A
GL_Account_01 10A


After defining each of the 10 occurrences as sub fields, I then define the
arrays using the following code:
GL_Account Overlay(GL_DS) Dim(10)
GL_Amount Dim(10) Alt(GL_Account)

I am receiving the following error:
RNF3442: The parameter GL_ACCOUNT for keyword ALT is not valid; keyword is
ignored.

What am I missing?
