I wanted to avoid using OPNQRYF and did this:
CREATE TABLE QTEMP/mytable AS

WITH DATA
RCDFMT myfile_formatname
Making a full permanent [irrespective of "QTEMP"] copy of the data
into QTEMP, just to create an ordered copy :-( Sometimes avoidance
should be avoided ;-)
But the format levels of mytable and myfile are not the same,
despite using RCDFMT.
Why?
That depends... on what is the exact definition and origins of
MYFILE. One example, defaults and identity attributes would not be
included in the new TABLE using the given syntax.
