Re: New to ILE -- RPG400-L

I guess my idea of ILE was wrong.  I was under the impression that all of
the subprocedures were supposed to be in seperate source members that were
accessed by the main procedure.  It almost seems like a waste.  Wouldn't it
be easier just to leave it in a subroutine?

Or, do other programs access those subprocedures even though they are
contained within the main procedure?  Or am I totally screwed up?

Hi Bob,

It looks as if you have coded the DATEMAIN1 program (Section 3.4.4) as two
source members - correct?

They should be coded as one - the main program, immediately followed by the
Day
of Week subprocedure.

You can save yourself some typing by downloading the source for the red
book -
you should find the link on the same web page as the book.

Regards
