The last line should be: duns = rm_a_(rm__a(table: '10' ));

I concur that you have to know the api, but it's straightforward.

However, in RPG's case i "know" the api/syntax, but the constructs needed
to use table/dictionary like functionality are so obscure and convulated
that it's still not clear nor intuitive (for me anyways).

That is neither intuitive nor clear. The function names are far too terse
to be clear to anyone who does not have an intimate knowledge of the api.

Using RpgMap (http://erps.me/RpgMap/Docs), the solution is much more
intuitive and clear.

Initialize table:

table = rm_m(
rm_a( '10' ) : rm_a( '006477244' ) :
rm_a( '18' ) : rm_a( '612726414' ) :
rm_a( '20' ) : rm_a( '612726414' )
);

Lookup:

duns = rm__a(table: '10' );

Thanks Dave!

Exactly what i was looking for and I especially like the single blank
to
seperate Whs/Duns, makes it easier to double check verbally!

I would use something more like this.

dcl-ds WhsLookup_t template;
Whs char(2);
*n char(1);
Duns char(9);
end-ds;

dcl-ds *n;
*n char(12) inz('10 006477244');
*n char(12) inz('18 612726414');
*n char(12) inz('20 612726414');
WhsTbl likeds(WhsLookup_t) dim(3) pos(1);
end-ds;


Sincerely,

Dave Clark </snip>
