RE: Record format level mismatch question

You are asking for programs to return invalid results in the future by
using level check *NO - you need to re-compile everything that uses the
logical when you make a change that changes the level.

Doesn't your program crash if you compile LF, well it happen to me
that's why we are using "Level Check *NO"

As long as the key is added at the end, what does it matter?

What is your recommendation, suppose I change my selection criteria and
add
a another key and compile what will happen to my programs?

Level Check (*NO) is never a good idea.

I find it hard to believe anyone still would recommend it.

Compile the logical with "Level check" parameter and specify "*NO" to

Suppose I have a uniquely-keyed logical with a SELECT. Case in point,

a

logical, uniquely keyed on customer number, limited to records of type
"customer."

Suppose I modify this logical so that it is limited to records of type
"customer" in which the customer number field is nonblank.

Would this change cause a level-check error when an existing program
tries to open the logical?
