Re: Reading of field definitions in a datastructure with QUSLFLD

Sql has easier way to deal with this, for example just run the below
statement and put the result into a data structure.
SELECT *
FROM SYSCOLUMNS
WHERE SYSTEM_TABLE_NAME = 'MYFILE' And
SYSTEM_TABLE_SCHEMA = 'MYLIB'

Is that possible or is it only external defined fields?

The QUSLFLD API retrieves information from files ... so it can't operate
on a data structure unless the data structure is externally defined.

IBM i on Power Systems: For when you can't afford to be out of business!

I'm riding a metric century (100 km / 65 miles) in the American Diabetes
Association's Tour de Cure to raise money for diabetes research, education,
advocacy, and awareness. You can make a tax deductible donation to my ride
by visiting http://lsteml.diabetessucks.net. My goal is $6000 but any
amount is appreciated.

See where I get my donations from ... visit http://lsteml.diabetessucks.ne
t/map for an interactive map (it's a geeky thing).

I may have diabetes, but diabetes doesn't have me!
