Hi Paul,
Unfortunately the powers that be have decided that unresolved APARs can 
only be viewed by entitled customers so if I was to bypass that there 
might be unhappiness for me.  Sorry.
All you need is an ibm.com ID and a valid customer number I think.

Hi Mike,
I'm having issues finding my passport advantage ID for the rational 
product (issues of the bureaucratic kind), so I can not view the link you 
provided. Can you (or someone) cut&paste the relevant text of the 
description of that APAR to this list so that I can check if it covers my 
issue?
-Paul.

Hi Paul, Does this describe the problem?
APAR SE54842 - Fields defined LIKE fields from an external file lack field 
characteristics in the ILE RPG Outline View.

Hi Edmund,
I experience the problem where the outline and the hover tooltip in RPGLE 
sources refuse to show the definition of a field that is defined LIKE() 
one of the fields from one of the files defined on an F-spec - it displays 
"Unknown (0)". This happens in all /FREE and fixed sources, and is not 
corrected after an outline refresh, a cache clear, a -clean start, or a 
new workspace.
I've created a short dummy RPGLE and DDS source pair that reproduces this 
problem. Do you need anything else before I create a PMR? Speaking of 
which, what other info do I need to create the PMR? (Never created one
before.)
I've included the sources here just in case others are interested and can 
offer advice.

Hi Jeff,
There are 2 possible scenarios.
There is a known problem where any LIKE definitions in terms of fields 
from external files are lost as soon as you do some edits.  Hitting 
Refresh will get them back.  This is an RFE I would like to get to soon
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewRfe&CR_ID=29965
- feel free to vote for it.
But I also have a PMR from someone that sees his LIKE definitons not 
resolving even after Refresh (with the files in the library list of 
course).  But I have not been able to reproduce it.  If you could open a 
PMR and send in material to reproduce the problem, we will all be better 
off.
Thanks,
Edmund (E.H.) Reinhardt
