Since I read this post, every time (well, almost every time) I have to touch an RPG/400 program, I convert it with CVTRPGSRC, add the appropriate h-specs so that it runs the same and then change it. Seems to always work the way Charles said.
This way I don't have to use the way-back machine that someone mentioned.
Any questions, let me know please.
Thanks,
Dave B

Ahhh - missed the RPG400 bit.
So sad that there are people out there obviously adding new functionality (dates in the database) and writing in an RPG dialect that has been obsolete for OVER 20 YEARS! (and yes I was shouting - feeling cranky this morning!)
There's some excuse for maintaining RPG400 code that rarely changes - but new code/features ? Gimme a break.

Can you tell me how we can affect a value in RPG400 to PF field with

If you absolutely cannot use ILE RPG then perhaps you could try
embedded SQL to manipulate the more recent data types.
I myself would CVTRPGSRC and put the program in ILE RPG syntax. Dates
are easy there.
