The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Having trouble with RPG creating an output file on AS/400

Asked by netwrked in RPG Programming Language, AS / 400

Tags: RPG, AS/400

Our programmer has left and I have a task that must be completed.  We currently have an RPG program that sends output directly to a printer.  Corporate wants to rollup the reports to a softcopy to save paper.   I am no RPG programmer.

I took the orginal file (attached) that output to two printers and added what I thought would be code to get it to output to a file.  When I run the program using the lines in the code section below, I still get the printed output, but no file is created.  I expected to see ADPFCH.

Not sure what I am doing wrong.  The second attachment is what I came up with.  I tried making it look like other reports that do rollup correctly, apparently I am missing something.  Would greatly appreciate any help.

Joe
