PS - Suggest you post into the code window instead of creating a Word doc. &nbsp;Many people (me included) don't like to open Word docs off the internet, and it might limit the number of responses you get.<br />

I would like to chain to a subfile record in FREE format.   I have done it is regular RPG, but get a compile error when I attempt it in the FREE.  Is this allowed?

Using CHAIN to access a subfile record in FREE format ?

Operating systems perform basic tasks, such as recognizing input from the keyboard, sending output to the display screen, keeping track of files and directories on the disk, and controlling peripheral devices such as disk drives and printers. For large systems, the operating system makes sure that different programs and users running at the same time do not interfere with each other. The operating system is also responsible for security, ensuring that unauthorized users do not access the system. Operating systems provide a software platform on top of which other programs, called application programs, can run.
