EASY WAY JUST FIRST U HAVE TO READ THE RECORD FORMAT OF
PFILE AND EVALUATE THE VALUES WHICH U WANT INTO THE FIELDS
NOTE THAT FOR CHARACTER FIELDS SPECIFY THE STRING IN SINGLE
QUOTE AND NUMERIC WITHOUT QUOTES AND GIVE THE VALUES TO THE
FIELDS BASED ON THE LENGTHS WHICH U HAD DECLARED IN PFILE. I

Primary to use RPG logic cycle,is this the correct method because we have to find number of records present using file information data structure in RPG/400 without doing any input/output operations on the file and also without using DSPFD,SQL. If the above coding is correct means,when i compile the program it gets compiled,but if i call the program it does not return anything,i need number of records,please complete the coding sir.
