Re: use of join logical

So, what is your question? Are you trying to balance between:
- Modifying programs written with the old format that selected every field
in the file including ones they did not even use?
- Creating a join logical that has the same layout so as not to modify the
programs?

If so, there are a number of things to consider, not the least being
whether or not you are updating this file as updating a join logical can
be quite tricky.

HI Now that I know what the lib list issue is I am facing one issue.
WHen retrofitting a new file in code i prefer to keep everything the same.

in varrsity file they had order type.

in failing program there was a chain to a varsity logical which was
indexed company, order type, order. (order type is origin like web,
franchise etc.)

in proship there is no ordertype. My question is, do i make a join
logical
using proship and
order header which has the order type? I am not sure if there other
options
or if this is the thing to do.

ideally we would not really need order type, all we are getting from these
files is the order weight and shipping cost.
