we have an old pf where a load of unrelated information is stored.
The rpg program would read it into a data structure. We always
referred to this file as our parameter file. Depending on the type of
information you are looking for, the rpg would load it into the
corresponding DS. These groups of records in the parametre file are
still referred to as tables. Hence the confusion and slight
irritation when someone mentions table meaning physical file.

You're not alone.
