Title: disk space analysis with OPNQRYF question

I want to build a file of containing the file sizes of each PF and each journal file on our AS/400.  To build this, I need to run DSPFD to an outfile for the PF's, and DSPOBJD to a different outfile for the *JRNRCV files.

Since I want only one pgm to process the outfile, I used OPNQRYF to make the DSPOBJD outfile look like the DSPFD file, and add the journal records to the end.

Is there a better way to do this?  I had to map many fields to blanks and zeros.  Isnt there a way to build a record format in OPNQRYF and use blanks and zeros to fill any fields missing in the input file?   This turns a simply OPNQRYF stmt into an ugly mess!

Any better ideas?  Thanks!

CL code:

            DSPFD      FILE(*ALL/*ALL) TYPE(*MBRLIST) +              
                         OUTPUT(*OUTFILE) OUTFILE(SUPPORTLIB/FDSKHSTW)
                                                                     
            CLOF DSPOBJDOUT                                          
            DSPOBJD    OBJ(*ALL/*ALL) OBJTYPE(*JRNRCV) +             
                         OUTPUT(*OUTFILE) OUTFILE(QTEMP/DSPOBJDOUT)  
            OVRDBF     FILE(DSPOBJDOUT) TOFILE(QTEMP/DSPOBJDOUT) +   
                         SHARE(*YES)                                 
            OPNQRYF    FILE((DSPOBJDOUT)) FORMAT(FDSKHSTW) +         
                         MAPFLD((MLFILE ODOBNM) (MLLIB ODLBNM) +
