Re: OT: Re: How to work with Arrays using positional RPG IV

Hey! Microfiche was not just for the /34! I worked for Zink and Katich

microfiche. Ah, those were the days... patching IBM programs to make
our own commands.

Jon,

Oh no, PL/MI is nothing like assembler (which I'm well aware you know).
I'm talking 370 and (does anyone remember it?) the S/34. Oh those were

Interestingly had the original question been about C or MI I could
understand it since they still have utility. It was ancient RPG that

and (at the time) I didn't know we were talking V5R4.
