Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: Parsing error beyond column 80 -- WDSCI-L

Thanks Daniel. That took care of it. I had all free format code, but I didn’t have the **free in the first line.

Hi,

I might recall it wrong - but without **free in the first line, the format of a source line in ILE-RPG (aka RPG/IV) was 80 columns of code (1-80) and 20 columns of comment (81-100) - even in /free.

Hi,

I'm using RDi 9.8 and my OS is 7.4. I'm editing an SQLRPGLE module in RDi and the parser throws an error if I enter code beyond column 80. My source file is set to 100 for the SRCDTA field. Why can't I enter code beyond column 80? I checked the preferences to see if there was a setting there, but I couldn't find one.
