PHP/MYSQL people scratch there head (more like point fingers at

There was a tip on Linkedin last night for people who are struggling with
file level checks. It seemed to be worth considering, so I wrote a small
program to test the idea. This is a program that performs setll, read,
write, update, and delete operations against a table:

With this structure, no file level checks are reported at runtime even
though the file is defined with LVLCHK(*YES), new fields have been added,
using alter table, the program was NOT recompiled, and it seems to run
flawlessly.

Thoughts?

Record layouts and key layouts are externally defined, too. Nice!
