I was trying to avoid the compare/selects, hoping I was just missing something in a simple statement or 2.
RPG is fundamentally not able to do what you're asking, because of its
statically compiled nature.
In principle, you can do anything in RPG, but in this case, all the
alternatives would be even more complicated than the compare/selects.
You said you didn't know any SQL. Well, now is as good a time as any
to pick some up. Even just rudimentary SQL would be very useful.
