In order to take my previous thread one step farther. I am developing an 
Order Inquiry application. I have, so far, 4 modules that display data. 
Would it be advantageous to:
1) place the display records for all of the modules into one display file 
and use OVRDSPF SHARE(*YES)
or
2) create a display file for each module?
It seems to me that the second option would cause allot more system 
overhead. I am currently employing the first method.
Any input would be extremely helpful.
thanks
Mark
