Exercise 2.4: Opening a second source member

Before you begin, you must complete Exercise 2.3: Viewing and accessing objects in the Remote System Explorer perspective.

Next let's open a second member in the editor.

To open a second source member:

  1. In the Remote Systems view, double-click member PAYROLL in the QRPGLESRC source file.

    This member will be loaded into the editor as well.

    Your Editor window will look something like:
    Editor with RPG source member

    Notice the two tabs in the Editor window.

  2. Click on each tab to switch from one edit session to another edit session.

You have opened another member for edit and now you are ready to begin Exercise 2.5: Displaying an outline of a source member.
