     John, 
     Build LFs for your additional access paths, then in RPG use the LF 
     name on your new F specs. Each LF will use its own access path, so you 
     won't need to issue an OVRDBF (unless you really want to <g>).

Quick question.  I have a program which needs use multiple access paths 
into the same file.  Is there a way to use the same file on two 
different F-specs.  I know how to rename the Record and how to use 
OVRDBF to allow multiple accesses to the same file.
     
Do I have to create a dummy PF to allow the program to compile ?
