RPG Alternate Lookup. This provides sample code for how to do a simple 'hashing' technique instead of an RPG Lookup operation. The intended use is for batch jobs which must summarize data into 2000 totals or less. This provides a much better performing solution than sorting the data, building an access path, or using a large array in an RPG program. The ANZRPGLKP command is provided to assist in determining the effectiveness of the technique.
