What is it about the join logical that doesn't work for you?

How large are the files?  A method that might also work if you are under
2500 records is to build a subfile with all 3 files.  The easiest and
fastest way to build the subfile in the order you wish is to use matching
record logic.

Subject: Multi-file logical needed
 
 
Hi group,
 
I have a need for a logical file that uses several physical files.
 
We have 3 physical files with information about cars, and all 3 files
contain a frame number field (same length and attributes in all 3 files).
A frame can only exist in one of these three files at any time.
 
What I need is one single view (logical) over these 3 files, showing all
possible frame numbers that exist (for a prompt program).
 
Can this be done?  I already looked at join logicals and multi-format
logicals, but these don't do what I need.
 
I would like to be able to run through this logical file so that all
existing frame numbers are shown in order.
 
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
