Try this
Dcl-Ds Carr1AcsDsc;
SeCarr1AD1 char(50);
SeCarr1AD2 char(50);
SeCarr1AD3 char(50);
SeCarr1AD4 char(50);
SeCarr1AD5 char(50);
SeCarr1AD6 char(50);
SeCarr1AD7 char(50);
Carr1AcsDscAry Like(SeCarr1AD1) Dim(7) Pos(1);
End-ds;

May not need the char(50) if the fields are already defined.

Ok, I am sure I have done this in the distant past but for the life of
me it is escaping me.

I have a file with lots of similar fields like SeCarr1AD1, SeCarr1AD2 .....
I want to be able to load these using an array like Carr1AcsDscAry(x)
= 'Description'

I have tried it with *Next and like below.

I know it's simple but just missing it.


Dcl-Ds Carr1AcsDsc;
Carr1AcsDscAry Like(SeCarr1AD1) Dim(7);
SeCarr1AD1 Overlay(Carr1AcsDscAry : 1);
SeCarr1AD2 Overlay(Carr1AcsDscAry : 51);
SeCarr1AD3 Overlay(Carr1AcsDscAry : 101);
SeCarr1AD4 Overlay(Carr1AcsDscAry : 151);
SeCarr1AD5 Overlay(Carr1AcsDscAry : 201);
SeCarr1AD6 Overlay(Carr1AcsDscAry : 251);
SeCarr1AD7 Overlay(Carr1AcsDscAry : 300);
End-ds;

Ideas?

Thanks!!
