RE: How to display data of an IFS file using rpgle program -- RPG400-L

I would second Eric's link to scottklement.com's ebook and elsewhere on the
site is a download of a library of working code.
It's old - the save file from v4r5 - but it all works.
Your own display file/RPGLE can use these tools for reading and writing ifs
files.
Depending upon your data, and how you want to select & view, you can
separate the display from the reading.

If you are familiar with a lot of the IFS stuff, then chapter 4 & 5.

Subject: How to display data of an IFS file using rpgle program

Hi All,

This is regarding a program I am writing where in I am using RPGLE program
to interact with IFS files.

I want to give users a way to see data received in IFS files from my 5250
display screen, when he selects "SHOW DATA" option.

Its already working if I implement WRKLNK command in rpgle program. However
the problem is WRKLNK is it takes you to the directory level first then one
has to select OPT 5 = DISPLAY to see the data of IFS file.

Here I am looking for a way so that I can directly display the data screen
of IFS file instead of WRKLNK directory screen.

Any thoughts suggestion will be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance !

Regards,
Kuldeep.
