retrieve/access occurrence of item - Sender is forged (SPF Fail)

[Pickering, John (NORBORD)]

I have always found it useful in situations like this to define
repeating items as below. This has proven itself to the extent that I
automatically include such a definition for any repeating items in the
dictionary as standard practice.

 

Item COMMENTS           Datatype Character        Size 200 Create


Begin Structure

  Item COMMENT-1        Datatype Character        Size 50

  Item COMMENT-2        Datatype Character        Size 50

  Item COMMENT-3        Datatype Character        Size 50

  Item COMMENT-4        Datatype Character        Size 50

End Structure

Item COMMENTS           Datatype Character        Size 200 &

                        Redefines COMMENTS

Begin Structure

  Item COMMENT          Datatype Character        Size 50 Occurs 4

End Structure

 

Looping constructs have never been one of Powerhouse's strengths and it
is often easier to deal when the individual occurrences by their unique
names.

Subject: retrieve/access occurrence of item

 

Hi,

 

PH 7.10.E6, VMS 7.3-1 RMS indexed file

I have a record with 3 items item1, item2, item3. Item3 occurs 5 times
and is made up of 2 segments call them item3A & item3B.

Is there a way to check the value of item3A when retrieving the record
(either in the Find or PostFind procedure).

i.e. retrieve record, check value of item3A[1], [2], [3], [4], [5].

 

I should mention there is only 1 record to this screen and it has an
occurs.

 

Thanx
