I will re ask the question.
1) If using DDL where is the source stored, source member, IFS, or not all?
The reason I ask, is we use utilities (Total/400, etc) that rely on source being stored in a source member.
2) At this time, our two major apps do not use or support DDL, thus out of the question for us, as of now.
Tomorrow could be another story.

Subject: Re: Storing source as DDL instead of DDS
Paul
Is everyone missing the point of your question? Or are you asking something different?
The subject is about storing source, NOT converting from DDS to DDL - is that right?
It is possible to use source in the IFS for ILE compile commands. I really do not think this is what this is about. Source stored in the IFS is in stream files - tables created with DDL are not treated like stream files, so far as I know.
So I'm very confused by the question AND by the responses, that seem to have missed the target completely.
Elucidate, please!!!
