You should probably re-create each of the LFs as a view containing
the select/omit logic.
I was under the impression I needed my LF's to stay as DDS, so to
keep the FormatID correct... (we don't want to recompile
programs...)
The VIEW has the RCDFMT kwd so keeping the same Record Format Level
Identifier should be possible without creating the file first with the
RcdFmt name and then renaming to the desired name.
The bigger issue would be for loss of K-spec in a VIEW; i.e. a VIEW
can not have a key field. An OPNQRYF ODP could effect that however.
I was just going to change the LF's to point to the new SQL table,
and use the FORMAT() keyword to point to the DDS logical, which was
the physical...
I do not recall ever using the FORMAT keyword in the DDS, but I
suspect [from my recollection of what it can effect] that using that kwd
will not be able to do what is implied by the intention alluded. The
FORMAT() parameter on the OPNQRYF however, that should work to do what
is alluded; but of course, at run-time, not creation-time.
