We need to Recompile RPG/400 Programs which use Keyed Physical Files
defined in F Specs but it actually doesnt exist.
We have tried to use the OVRDBF command to override this file to a
a flat file and then have defined the key using OPNQRYF command.

We do all this in a CL program which calls the above RPG program. This
method runs correctly during runtime but when we tried to compile the
program after doing this all steps it says that keyed operation cannot
be done on a flat file. It means that OVRDBF command runs correctly but
OPNQRYF command in which we have defined the key does not runs
successfully.
This all is a part of Year 2000 project and after doing the conversion
we have to compile them but have encountered this problem.

OVRDBF     FILE(UGJWTEMP) TOFILE(GJW) SHARE(*YES)
OPNQRYF    FILE((*LIBL/GJW)) OPTION(*ALL) +
             FORMAT(UGJWTEMP) KEYFLD((WJJRN) (WRF2))


Any help will be welcome
