Re: Moving display file record into a data structure

["Charlie Massoglia" <cmassoglia@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Externally describe the data structure using the name and record format of the display file.  No MOVE will be needed since the field names will be the same.  If you want to play games, you can name the data structure and move it elsewhere.

Subject: Moving display file record into a data structure

I cannot seem to move a display file record into a similar data structure without having to move the fields individually.  I've tried both a MOVE and an EVAL, such as EVAL   D1DS = D1, where D1DS is the data structure and D1 is the display file record format.  It will not allow a compile.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,
