Re: Reading 2 different files with the same fields

The best solution is going to depend on whether the record format names and
record format level IDs are the same between the two versions of the files.
If all are identical then OVRDBF will solve the problem. You can either
specify this in the driver CL (if you have one) or via QCMDEXC in the RPG
before opening the files. Otherwise, you will most likely need to define
all four files to the RPG, and condition which ones you open via an input
parameter, though there are several other possibilities.
