RE: Recovering deleted records

[<SRamanujan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have an emergency production issue and my client does not have wrkdbf.
I am trying the cpyf with compress(*no) but am getting no where.  MY
dspfd shows the same number of deleted records.  Then how do you compare
these 2 files?  The original was keyed and I created the copy with no
keys and did the cpyf. (I also tried to create a cpyf with record start
as 1) when I do a cmppfm, I get all records as mismatch.  

What am I doing wrong?

TIA,
Sudha

WRKDBF works great except in a situation that I ran into.  The software
product had a keyed PF so I could not look at the records.  I just
copied
the file into a new pf that had no key and it worked fine.  I ended up
using
the CPY ... COMPRESS(*NO)...
