But the RPG programmer has to code the F spec to use the index or file.
RPG can't create an index or DDS file to use instead of the F spec file.
But it doesn't matter whether you specify a physical file or a logical file
or an index in the F-Specs.

If embedded SQL is used

What about using an SQL Index or DDS described logical file without

native I/O?


Yes, that works. But the RPG programmer has to code the F spec to use the
index or file. RPG can't create an index or DDS file to use instead of the F
spec file.
