Interesting that you would keep the upc code on the product master as a product can have MULTIPLE upc codes
We have a separate file with product number, upc code which means that you can have unlimited number of upc codes per product (well - not exactly unlimited, but a LARGE number)

Subject: how to create logical file with one key over two fields
If I have an product master file with two UPC fields, can I create a LF which will read the product file by either UPC?
Also want to be able to view with DBU with multiple record screen.
I can do this with a multi-format LF, but DBU displays (in multi-record screen) as one large field (instead of product name, product desc, UPC1, UPS2, etc).
Also can I do this WITHOUT naming each field in the PF?
Is there an better method to do this, for example SQL??
Thanks!
