Hi Jerry,

I know that I can use OVRDBF with LVLCHK(*NO), but that doesn't work
for USROPN tables.

Why wouldn't it work for USROPN tables?! I don't really like the idea of using LVLCHK(*NO), but it _should_ work with USROPN... I don't see why it wouldn't!

Yes, it's compiled into the program, you can't change it at run-time.


The only alternatives that I have come up with are to either:

1. Define each table in the program and create three subprocedures

2. Rebuild the tables with the same record format name.


A few more options:

3. Use program-described access to the file. (potentially with an externally-defined data structure.)

4. Use SQL instead of native I/O

5. Use the _Ropen(), _Rread(), etc APIs instead of native I/O.
