RE: Remove prefix

["Lim Hock-Chai" <Lim.Hock-Chai@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The request is mainly to make code a bit more readable and save some
typing.  If all fields in my ORDERHDR file have an OH prefix,
referencing the qualified data structure of ORDERHDR in RPG looks kind
of weird.

Below looks weird:
OH.OHORD#
OH.OHORDDT

Below looks better (for me):
OH.ORD#
OH.ORDDT

You could do "prefix(XX : 2)" on all the files and any matching field
names will "overlay" each other, assuming they have the same
definitions.
