Difference Between Skip Before & Space Before?



Difference Between Skip Before & Space Before?..

Answer / Laxman Singh

Skip Before (SKPO) and Space Before (SPBO) are two different level keywords used in RPG programs on IBM AS400. SKPO skips a specified number of records before the current record, while SPBO skips a specified number of spaces before printing data. For example: SKPO 1 would skip one record before processing the current one, and SPBO 2 would insert two spaces before printing the current data.
