RE: How to change the: File level identifier

I don't know how to change the file level identifier, but I do know that a
more relevant piece of information for your verification program would be
the record level identifier.  This is the information checked by programs to
determine whether a level check condition exists, which is to say, whether
the fields and attributes match the file against which the program was
compiled.  As far as I know, file level identifier is really not relevant.

If you would like, I have some code somewhere that compares the record
format level of two files.  However, I don't think it handles files with
multiple formats.

Hope that helps.

On System A - There is a physical file with a File level identifier
1030120085854
On System B - The same physical file has a File level identifier
1030128174521

My intent is to make the File level identifier the same on both systems.

I have a report that verifies the File level identifier of all files
(among many other things ... )
on both systems and it is a great tool to verify object discrepancies
