Congrats on posting!
I changed a program in our upgrade environment and got a cleaned compile. I want to move the program to test environment for user's testing. I used the pgmdump and then tried compiling the custom program and got an error (new fields added to the workfile) are not on the workfile in the new environment.

when you did a pgmload, did you use the -p option?

I believe you need to use the -i option

I would recommend using the metadumpxxx/metaloadxxx utilities rather than pgmdump/pgmload to migrate the program, work files, messages, etc. across environments, since it will also make sure the meta files are in sync.

Did you also move the COBOL code of the program?

It's in the Application Maintenance Toolset (AMT) guide for version 8 and 9, and in the LSF System Utilities guide for version 10.
