RE: Records written to a file don't show up immediately

[Holden Tommy <Tommy.Holden@xxxxxxx>]

In most places I have worked the FRCRATIO (i.e. CHGPF) is accessible by
operators, sys admins, dba's, programmers where as the FEOD opcode would be
maintainable ONLY by the programming staff....

Thanks,
Tommy Holden

It was my impression that FEOD is relatively expensive, especially if you're
doing it after every record being output.  Well, perhaps for an interactive
program it may be acceptable.

Hmmmph.  Don't know why that is.  Well, then, stick the override in the RPG
program.
