Re: Order of Open in Primary/Secondary Read

Top down.  unless you are using matching records, in which case the
decision is made just before the read, which file it will read from (based
on Mx field values).

Hello all,

I have a primary and several secondary files in a program. In which order
are the files read after the primary is read through? I know the files are
opened from the bottom up but are they read that way or is it specified by
the order of the I spec?


Thanks,

Mark
