Hadn't noticed this Doug - but I'm not surprised.

I have found that RDi doesn't seem to like the / anywhere except in position 7.

With free format H, F, and D specs, there is also the capability to have the /COPY statement not be restricted to beginning in column 7. That works fine for a normal RPGLE type program. However, when I move a /COPY statement to begin in column 9, and my source is type SQLRPGLE, the SQL Precompiler does not always seem to recognize the /COPY statement.

I have one program with 3 /COPY statements. One is by itself in one section of my D specs, and the other two are together in a subsequent section of D specs. The two begin in column 9 and there is no problem with the SQL compiler. However, when the first one is in column 9, the SQL precompiler does not recognize it, and it looks like it treats it as a comment. When I move that one back to begin in column 7, the precompiler recognizes the /COPY.

Has anyone else experienced this or know if there a PTF for this?

Thank you,

Doug
