Justin,

You could create a DDS-based Logical File ("view") over a (so-called) "flat file" PF ...

Define each "field" as a "substring" of the one-and-only "field" in the physical file record, e.g.:

     A CUSNBR          S  I      SST(CUSDTA 1 10)
A                                      COLHDG('Customer' ' 'Number')
     A TEXT('Customer Number')
     A            CUSNAM          A I      SST(CUSDTA 11 15)
A                                      COLHDG('Customer' ' 'Name')
     A                                      TEXT('Customer Name')
        ...

HTH,

Mark S. Waterbury

Chuck Pence-I don't know what IDDU is. WRKQRY doesn't show human-readable, so I guess it's not set up. I'll have to Google IDDU.
