Re: Retrieving a file's record format level. Is there an easy way?

Hi, James:

It depends on your definition of "easy."

DSPFD to an *OUTFILE and rthen ead the outfile ...
-or-
call the QDBRTVFD API to get the information that way.
see: Format Definition Header (Qdb_Qddfmt) under:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v6r1m0/topic/apis/qdbrtvfd.htm

Does that help?
