Re: determine value of each bit in a character field

just for clarification, this is the definition of the 1 byte field
I need values for bits 1, 5, 6, 7

D QDBBITS06 1 1
D* QDBFRDEL 1 BIT
D* Reuse Deleted Records
D* (REUSEDLT)
D* 0 = The deleted record space
D* in the file's members is
D* NOT used again by the
D* system on Write (Insert)
D* requests to the file's
D* members (*NO).
D* 1 = The deleted record space
D* in the file's members is
D* used again by the system
D* on Write (Insert)
D* requests to the file's
D* members (*YES).
D* QDBRSV30 3 BITS
D* Reserved.
D* QDBFSQLT 1 BIT
D* SQL Table Indicator
D* 0 = The file is NOT an SQL
D* table.
D* 1 = The file is an SQL table.
D* QDBFMQT 1 BIT
D* SQL Materialized Query Table
D* Indicator
D* 0 = The file is not an MQT.
D* 1 = The file is an MQT.
D* QDBFSQPT 1 BIT
D* SQL Partitioned Table
D* Indicator
D* 0 = The file is not an SQL
D* Partitioned Table.
D* 1 = The file is an SQL
D* Partitioned Table.
D* QDBRSV31 1 BIT
D* Reserved.

Am working with api QDBRTVFD.
If a 1 byte field has 8 bits, how do I determine the value of each bit?
(decades of RPGxx I've never been comfortable with bits)

Thanks,
