I haven't found any reference in the archives for this.
We are attempting to set up source members in QCPYSRC for each data
file. The source would include D specs, I/O type (Chain, SetLL, etc),
%EOF assignment. We /define xxxx_ChainN, for example, in a subroutine in
the main program with the /copy QCPYSRC/IOxxxx. The D specs are defined
in 'DSpecs'. 
The problem I am encountering is key lists. First I defined them in the
program that retrieves /copy source, but then thought they should all be
in the /copy member itself within each action's  own /define clause.
Then each key list name would have to be unique. I also made each kfld
unique (XXKyName) where y is the logical file number - zero being for
the physical.
The next issue is partial keys. Now, there could be several situations
where we'd want different partial keys for any given logical.

What I'd really like is to have IOModules for each file. We tried it at
another shop and it was going OK, but we ran out of time to develop it
properly. In this instance we would have passed I/O type etc to the
module and it would have performed the action and passed back pertinent
information.

We used essentially the above solution with the exception of logicals.
They were not addressed and we had to insert code for them. We had
several programmers and there was a mix of 'standards'.
