Answer / s kumar

You need to use prefix keyword when you declare the file
FPF2 IF E DISK PREFIX(S)

Where 'S' is any desired name by this all fields of PF2
will start with S alphabet.

Answer / syam

Kumar's answer is correct, but this will prefix all fields
for pf2 file with "S".

Use this code:

D NewPf2 E DS EXTNAME(PF2)
D S_Status E EXTFLD(Status)

This is for one field

Answer / svankipu

Yah! Kumar's answer is correct and...
Syam's answer is aptly correct. exact.

why do u want to prefix all the fields either?
it is not proper also. & it becomes cumbersome also while
maintaining.

Thanks!

Answer / fhgf

HI,
YOU MEAN "SSTATUS" IN PF2
