Tony,

I have file I/O service programs where I pass the data structures back and
forth from/to calling programs
and have found the 'reading into' and 'writing from' data structures method
works great.
I 'qualify' all of these data structures, which makes for more typing.
I also name the data structures so that I know I am using the appropriate
one:
FileAIDs would be what I read.
FileAODs would be what I write.

In a previous post you had talked about comparing like-named fields from
like-named files.
Using 'read into' data structures you could:

Read FileAFmt FileAIDs :
Read FileBFmt FileBIDs ;

If FileAIDs.Part# = FileBIDs.Part# ;
        Do Something ;
EndIf ;
