SQL does all the stuff correctly even with encrtyped key fields - RPG I/O does have some issues.

One of the vendors has a solution for this that seems to be working, to allow using native I/O even with this issue.

It's better than what we had before, which would require changing the size
of the field and recompiling the world.

I wouldn't encrypt a key in a new application, but you live with what you
have.

I have a question here.

I have tried implementation a fieldproc on a key field but was unable to
do so.

The issue we had was that key field was also used in a Join Logical file
to join on another file. FIELDPROC doesn't like that. Do we have a
solution for this ?

In fact I contacted IBM and they suggested not to encrypt the Key Fields
instead use an alternative file/field.

FIELDPROC comes with a tagline of "No Application Changes" right ? But
that is not 100% true right ? We still have to see and make changes in the
programs where we have a READ/READE ? Agree ?
