Answer / alok.yee001

We need to rename the rocord format of atleast one logical file so that program will recognize the both files.

Prefix the fields is not really required (program will be compiled without prefix).

Hi,

copy those two logical files data into a physical file using CPYF command. Then, use that physical file in RPG program in F-spec...

CPYF FROMFILE(LIBRARY NAME/FILE NAME) TOFILE(LIBRARY NAME/FILE NAMECPY) FROMMBR(MBR NAME) TOMBR(MBR2CPY) MBROPT(*REPLACE) CRTFILE(*YES) FROMRCD(*START) INCREL((*IF field name *EQ 'R') (*AND field number *GT 99999999))
