Eric,

well, i have a dspf in my program made up of 3 records.
the dspf is called pa001 and its 3 rec. are, dspfpa001a, dspfpa001b,
dspfpa001c.

i guess you're saying that pa001 will be defined in fspec and when i
use something like EXFMT dpsfpa001c to execute certain records right?

but how do you define a dspf in fspec. its not an update file, is it
an input file described externally on disk?
