Re: changing keys of a physical file

Paul,

You don't have to do this anymore.

You can do a CHGPF, specifying the changed dds source and it will do the
conversion for you (as long as you aren't changing an existing field
attribute from numeric to alpha or visa versa).

I suppose that adding a field to a file using SQL to alter the table
is 'better' than changing the DDS and recompiling the file, then
migrating the data...
