Charles,

Would you mind giving an example. I've never come across a technique to reformat data in the logical and would like to learn how to do so.

I'm also extremely curious about PUTting an LF on System-A and being able to read the data residing on System-B. Was I incorrect when I said that an LF is nothing more than an index, which in and of itself contains no actual data? Again, I'm asking so I can learn something new - even if it throws something I thought I knew into a dustbin.

Actually it does. I've done it in the past plenty of times.

John,

I don't think that the LF would reformat the data from packed to
zoned, though I have never had reason to try. I would create a zoned
version of the file, and copy the data. The i will map the data to
the new formats.
