RE: QSYS38 in library list

QSYS38 is only dynamically put into your library list when an active
program with the attribute 38 (e.g.: CLP38, RPG38) is executed.  I don't
think that it matters for files.  When you went from the 38 to the 400, IBM
tacked the suffix 38 onto just about every object that you brought over,
except for libraries.  PF38 and LF38 objects cannot have the new attributes
in the database such as variable length fields and reuse deleted records.

I have some PF38 and LF38 files and I do NOT have QSYS38 in my library
list.
I do not think there is any connection between the file type and QSYS38.
QSYS38 is only there to support the S/38 environment.  In a CLP38 I would
code DSPOUTQ, in a CL it would be WRKOUTQ; stuff like that.

If your programs are all converted then it looks like you are all set.  By
converted, I mean that you don't have
crtpf workfile.qtemp rcdlen(80)  but you have  crtpf qtemp/qorkfile
rcdlen(80).

The ultimate answer to the vendor's problem probably lies in the position
of
QSYS38 in the library list.  Do a DSPLIBL and see where it falls.  Is it in
the user part of the library list or the system part?
