That makes sense.  I'll try plan a tomorrow.  Thanks. 

About the OCL... I know I can use CL in OCL, but can I call OCL from 
RPGIV?

Booth,

 Coupla choices:

 a) Define the file in DDS as field1 156 long, field2 5 long, field3 9
long.  Then key it by field 2.  Assuming you are using the file only by
programs with internally defined file descriptions, this will work fine.

 b) Create the file with CRTPF fixed record of 170 characters.  Then
create DDS for an LF that uses SUBST to create a keyfield starting in
157 for 5 long.

 I guess I'd use 'a'.

 But then, why not use OCL BLDFILE??? (Just asking)
