     one option is to create a file with your required fields/keypath
etc and then use OPNQRYF to build the access path from therequired files.

Not very elegant and not particulary good if you have a large number of
records in the files involved. Depends if its a batch or interactive job.

Some questions to consider:
How large are the files involved ?
Is this for a batch or interactive process ?
If interactive, is it going to be regularly run - if so you might need
to consider a new file for this specific purpose.
