RE: Creating a physical AND Logical file

Alan,

I could _maybe_ see where auditors would dislike allowing you to use
CRTDUPOBJ from a command line. (kind of dumb but whatever)

However, there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to use it in a CL
program.  Perhaps they'd want somebody else high to create a program to
encapsulate the CRTDUPOBJ command you need, which you could then call.

Thanks for your reply Donald
The rationale unfortunately is not up for argument, only to 
say that it IS
an auditing concern.
And yes - I did place a value in the member name within 
DTAMBRS, and ended
up with the same results as without that member name
We are on V5r4. I wonder if there is some ptf for this?

I'd be interested in hearing the rationale against preventing
production programs from using CRTDUPOBJ.

The only thing that jumps out at me is you didn't specify the member
name within the DTAMBRS.

There is another alternative here.  You could add a member to the
physical and logical files and use OVRDBF to make the program use
those members.  When the program is finished, the members 

can be removed.

Good luck.

Okay - due to auditing constraints and other things, I am 

not allowed to

use CRTDUPOBJ

CRTLF FILE(QTEMP/LOGFILE) DTAMBRS((QTEMP/PHYSFILE))
The logical file gets created but with NO member
