Hi Jim,

I couldn't find any example, but here's what I did find:

No, the record format selector program is attached to the logical file,
either when it is created (CRTLF), changed (CHGLF) or overridden (OVRDBF).
The parameter is FMTSLR. It is called by the system *only* if the program
doing an add (write) doesn't specify the format.

I couldn't find GG24-3304-xx..., but it's all explained in
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr/BOOKS/QB3AUC01/2.3.4.1
with a sample program.
