I have 2 fields that are the same but the master file has one that is D12.2 and one that is P9 (and yes I am not allowed to touch the master file to change it). How do I sucessfully do a join so I can join these 2 fields?

Thanks

Look into the defined based join. Assuming you are only joining on one field should help. Don't think you can use it on multiple fields in the join.

JOIN D12.2FIELD_DEF WITH P9FIELD IN FILEA TO
D12.2FIELD IN FILEB AS J1
END
DEFINE FILE FILEA
D12.2FIELD_DEF = P9FIELD;
END
