Re: DSPFFD *OUTFILE Curiosity

OK, there is a sheepish and shameful grin on my face as I type. The DSPFFD worked as it should. I was using the DSPF to look at and was expecting something more human readable. When I ran my query on the file anyway it worked. I should know better.

Thanks guys and sorry for the wild goose chase.

Glenn, you might find the following useful.  It is the screen shot of my
DSPFFD utility, showing the layout for the DSPFFD outfile record format
QWHDRFFD.  I've chopped part of the Field Description to avoid as much
wrapping in the list email as possible, but you get the idea.  If there were
keys on this file, you'd see those as well.
