Re: Lookup with Array

[Booth Martin <booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

At V5R3 I would probably do this:
   D X                              2  0
   D  EarnTypeS                     3     Dim(50)
   D  HoursSum                     12  2  Dim(50)
   D  PaySum                       12  2  Dim(50)
...
   C     EarnTypeL     Lookup   EarnTypeS(x)          30
and then use arrays HoursSum(x) and PaySum(x)

It requires more lines to load the array, but its probably easier in the 
long run.  (in my opinion.)

I also like the suggestion of looping through your data structure, 
especially if  for-loops were available at V5R3?
