Hi,

I think it if pretty simple. If you are doing a load-all subfile, while
writing the record to subfile, just check if it is active or inactive in a
subroutine and based on that write to subfile.

I think that could solve your problem.

Hi,

I'd like to know how you are treating such records, for example, a client
that is no longer with you. In our client file, the client would be flagged
as being no longer active, but never deleted. The trouble is, this has led
to us creating logical files that omit these inactive records and that is a
problem for the programs that use SQL.

Now, my RPG program needs to list clients in a subfile where the user types
part of a name and/or town. If I don't use the OMIT logical, then my program
must read all active and inactive clients then do the same with the address.

Any thoughts will be appreciated.
