I will include what I have attempted already, for reference; many would find the Subject request to be improper, without showing some prior effort. But any fully-functional but simple example-sources would be welcome, as there is no specific reason the following code would need to be /corrected/.

The following OCL performs a setup for a RPG36 that will be called. A file S36OUT is created, into which the row should be output\written. Another file is created too, file S36INP, for possible use to obtain as data in the program via a read, so that same data can be written to the S36OUT; note however, that I really do not care if the data written is a literal or that row data.

// FLIB QS36F,LIBL
// DLTF QS36F/S36INP
// DLTF QS36F/S36OUT
// CRTPF QS36F/S36INP RCDLEN(55)
// CRTPF QS36F/S36OUT RCDLEN(55)
// CPYF QIWS/QCUSTCDT QS36F/S36INP FMTOPT(*NOCHK) +
MBROPT(*REPLACE) NBRRCDS(1)
// LOAD INSS36
// FILE NAME-S36INP,DISP-OLD,LABEL-S36INP
// FILE NAME-S36OUT,DISP-OLD,LABEL-S36OUT
// RUN

Having tried to mimic [a poor excuse for] an example from the docs showing some declarative that would enable copying data from one file to another, I culled that example, and combined that with the QPROOF source shipped in QS36SRC of #LIBRARY. I then created my program as *CURLIB/INSS36 from the source member of the same name, but from file QRPGSRC instead of QS36SRC from following source, compiled with a request to:

CRTS36RPG *CURLIB/INSS36 SRCFILE(QRPGSRC) SRCMBR(INSS36)
OPTION(*SOURCE *SECLVL) GENOPT(*LIST) REPLACE(*YES)


FS36INP IP F 55 DISK
FS36OUT O F 55 DISK A
E ARRY 1 3 8
I* .1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6....+.
IS36INP XX

C MOVE ARRY,2 ARRY,3

C SETON LR
C* .1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6
OS36OUT DADD
O LR RCDOUT 55
**
COMPILE
TIME
ARRAY


After invoking the program as loaded\run by the OCL, my output file S36OUT has a blank record, followed by the expected record. Statement trace seems to show the write at '.DRVFW02' occurring twice, but I have almost no idea why, though possibly something to do with non-detail record output -- I am really quite RPGII illiterate.

If I can finally get a sensible insert, then I want to get an update; I have not even begun to delve into that.
