Re: joined logical, three physicals, same record format names

Hi Mark,

I believe you'll have to do it the brute force way for two of the files:

A          R RSHORD                    PFILE(DATA400/SHORDMIN)
A          K OCUST#
A          K OSHPDT
A          K OWDTYP
A          K OITEM#
A          O OSTAT                     VALUES('X')
A*
A          R RSHORD2                   PFILE(DATA400/SHORDMIN2)
A  ... all fields defined here (copy from the PF's DDS)
A          K OCUST#
A          K OSHPDT
A          K OWDTYP
A          K OITEM#
A          O OSTAT                     VALUES('X')
A*
A          R RSHORD3                   PFILE(DATA400/SHORDSPC)
A  ... all fields defined here (copy from the PF's DDS)
A          K OCUST#
A          K OSHPDT
A          K OWDTYP
A          K OITEM#
A          O OSTAT                     VALUES('X')

You shouldn't need to change your RPG program.
