Try something like this:

FTheirFile e disk prefix(T_)
FMyFile e disk prefix(M_)

Then DocID becomes T_DocID or M_DocID automagically.

I have a situation here where files from a third party vendor contain

each varying, where as those in my files were created fixed length. That
of course produces a compile error. I have over ridden(renamed) the
fields in my files by way of the I specs; thusly:
// ISPECS
***************************************************************
IRim0003
I DocID DocID_3
I Title Title_3
I Folder1 Folder1_3

My question is this: Is there any way to accomplish this same end without
resorting to fixed column I specs? These stand out like a sore thumb in
an otherwise totally free-form program.
