RPGLE. &nbsp; In the example it should, from what I remember, it places the number at the end of FIELD, so if it is in it's first loop the field name would be FIELD1, then next loop FIELD2, etc. &nbsp; I wish I had that old code I did. &nbsp; I'm thinking Murphey is close to what I did, this was in RPGIV a long time ago.

Thanks! &nbsp;I really thought there was an easier solution that I did in the past.

Hello Experts,<br />
<br />
I have a RPGLE question concerning looping though field names instead of having multiple routines with each field name.<br />
<br />
Exp. &nbsp; I have field names FIELD1, FIELD2, FIELD3, etc. &nbsp; I know in the past(I've been away from AS/400 for years) I would use a DOU loop something like this.<br />
<br />
DOU I = 10<br />
FIELD,I &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;CHAIN &nbsp; &nbsp;FILE &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 99<br />
<br />
How do I do that in RPGLE?<br />
<br />
THanks!!

Hello Experts,

I have a RPGLE question concerning looping though field names instead of having multiple routines with each field name.

Exp.   I have field names FIELD1, FIELD2, FIELD3, etc.   I know in the past(I've been away from AS/400 for years) I would use a DOU loop something like this.

DOU I = 10
FIELD,I      CHAIN    FILE       99

How do I do that in RPGLE?

THanks!!

DO loop through field names ending in a numeric
