The report is not that involved, so I was thinking that all I need
was o specs, when it occurred to me that I was creating the program
totally in free form - but I could NOT remember reading about any
changes to o specs with free form
Hence my question


The change was that O-specs were eliminated in fully free-form RPG
(**free). Thus, you only have two choices in fully free-form RPG... An
externally defined print file, or put the fixed-form O-specs in a copybook
and /INCLUDE them. The compiler switches to **no-free during copybook
inclusion.
