RE: Re-key PF or LF

["Erickson, Jon" <JonErickson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You can accomplish this by using an OVRDBF & OPNQRYF with KEYFLD
parameter(s) on your un-keyed PF.

                Hello -- here is a little question for all you out in
AS/400 land.

                Is there a way to key a PF without using a LF and not
putting K spec in the PF ?

                Heres what I got.
                1 PF that has over 14000 records in it, of which I want
51.
                so I crtdupobj, and sql the records I need. The RPG prog
then 
                needs to read this file with keys. but there arn't any !
Must I 
                create a temp LF or is there a way of using opnqryf (or
something)
                that can put the keys into the PF.

                Hope this makes sense :)
                Marc Woodbridge.
