synchronize jobs
Hi! How can I synchronize two or more RPGLE/CL programs that are executed via SBMJOB command, in order to avoid conflicts in using files and dataareas? If you could send me an example, it'll be greatly appreciated. Thanx in advance, Meli :)

ftp error codes
Hi! I'm writing a program that needs to execute the FTP command n times (where n is determined by the value of some field in a DDS table), only if there is an error during one of those executions. The question is: how can I determine if the execution failed? Thanks a lot! :) Meli

Utility to Print RPG Output Specs
Does anyone recall or use a utility that was used in "the old days" to print a listing of the O-specs in RPG II. The utility would review an RPG source member. It would then print a listing of what the output heading and detail lines would look like. It used "X"s and "9"s to show lengths of fields...

Writing to a file with a data array
Have a PF with 50 fields named COUNT1, COUNT2, ... COUNT50. Wondering how I can read an array and loop each time x increments 1, put the value in the corresponding field? example AR1(x) goes to COUNT1 when x = 1, AR1(x) goes to COUNT2 when x = 2.

Use of %Lookup BIF in Free form RPG - V5R3?
Hi, I am having a problem when I try to use the %Lookup BIf in free form RPG. It doesn't seem to be functioning as it is supposed to. Is there something that I am missing (like PTFs) or is there a workaround to this problem if it is a previously known issue? Thanks for your help!!
