RE: OPNQRYF versus LF

["Bale, Dan" <DBale@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Not sure what it is you're asking.  You can use an externally defined file
as output from the CPYFRMQRYF command, and, in so doing, define a key.  If
you let CPYFRMQRYF create the file, there will be no key.  Presuming your
output is in the same format as the input, just do a CRTDUPOBJ of the file
to QTEMP using DATA(*NO) and specifying a different file name

If you're concerned only with the sequence of the output, you can specify
that in the OPNQRYF command's KEYFLD parameter.

Can I add a further question ? Is it possible to maintain the key of the 
opnqryf when using CPYFRMQRYF to create a file, say in QTEMP ?
