As I stated in my last email, it worked but based on these other comments maybe I need to think more about the situation.
If you have the same field name in two different data structures (even
if it has the same characteristics), you will need to do one of two things:
1. Change the name of the field in one of the data structures.
2. Qualify the data structures
Neither one is something you can do lightly, obviously.
If you haven't already done so, I highly (highly, highly, highly)
recommend learning the concept of qualified data structures. I find
them absolutely indispensable once an application reaches the level of
complexity where you are doing things like copy books for includes.
First I became proficient in qualified data structures. And then I
learned about the TEMPLATE keyword and using LIKEDS. :)
