I've got an SQLRPGLE program that I just added an f-spec that uses the
EXTDESC keyword.
FCHK_ITEM IF A E K DISK extdesc(IORITEMM)
F extfile(IORITEMM)
F rename(IORITEM1:CHK_ITEMR)
F prefix('CHK.')



When I compile, I get a
SQL1001 - External file definition for CHK_ITEM not found.

Does the SQL precompiler not support EXTDESC?

As I read this,
http://ibmsystemsmag.com/Blogs/i-Can/Archive/i-canuse-rpg-and-sql-together/

The pre-compiler was enhanced at 6.1.

We are running 7.1 TR 6 (or so)

Am I missing a PTF?

Thanks!
