AW: CLRPFM on file that is foreign key

Hi,

While that would work, it's not nearly as efficient as the CLRPFM would

be.
Not true, since release V5R3 a CLRPFM will be performed (if possible) with
the SQL Delete without WHERE-Conditions.

Also, while not an issue with Jeff, since he's using DDL to define his

files, is that DDS does NOT specify Reuse Deleted Records by default. DDL
files will reuse deleted records, keeping the work file from growing....

But both default values can be changed by performing a CHGPF.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Birgitta Hauser

Have you tried using SQL? Simple as "DELETE FROM lib/file".

How does one do a CLRPFM on a table that is the target of a foreign key
constraint?
