Maybe use SQL all the way;

Select rrn(mytbl) as rrn , mytbl.*
from mytbl

and then you have it in a more declarative way.

TBLRRN is defined as a 4 byte integer; in RPG that is a 10 digit

integer. You might try 10Y 0 in de display file.

This did not work. Apparently no on the fly conversion.

If that doesn't work, you'll have to use different names and move TBLRRN

to the display file field.

That worked. Thanks! After being used to numeric field widths being
defined like char fields (number of positions), I was blind on the
Bytes-eye.

:wq! PoC
