No it's not possible.  And I've given up on a DCR ever getting IBM to
change.  I put requests in there for this capability since V1R2.

You're not going to be create an index over the view.

Your best bet is to give up trying to do this via 'traditional I/O' in
languages such as RPG or COBOL.  And use imbedded SQL.  The first time you
run it, do a STRDBG PGM(*NONE) UPDPROD(*YES).  SQL will suggest any indexes
that will make it run faster.

DDS JOIN...






Is it possible using the join in the dds, to create key fields from the
'joined to file?'

A                                      JDFTVAL 
A          R PMRREQF                   JFILE(PMPREQND PMPREQNF)
A          J                           JOIN(1 2) 
A                                      JFLD(RQDID  RFDID) 
 
A            RQDID         10          TEXT('DEPT ABR') 
A            RQNAME        40          TEXT('DEPT NAME') 
A            RQLINE1       55          TEXT('EXTRA LINE') 

If I use this...

I can create key fields from the pmpreqnd table, but I can create any key
fields from the pmpreqnf..

Is this correct? 

Or Should I use SQl to create a view of my join, then create an index...
