Contiguous file fields not so in program storage (was: Pointer based arrays)

That worked, Barbara.  Thank you.

Now why are the file fields not contiguous in program storage and how can I
determine if they will or will not be?

Don, even though the fields are contigous in the file, they aren't
necessarily contiguous in the program storage.  But you can force them
to be contiguous by coding an externally-described data structure.  You
just need to add one line to your program:

D         E DS           EXTNAME(myfile)
