API to retrieve data field contents

["Jonathan Mason" <jonathan.mason@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

Has anybody had any experience of using API's to retrieve the contents of PF
fields?  I've been looking at the API documentation, and the only one that I
can find that looks like what I need is QDBBRCDS.  The description says
about bringing the records into main storage, and only provides input
parameters for the records you want.  How do you reference the records
afterwards as there's no pointer or anything returned by the API?

Any advice would be gratefully received.

Thanks

Jonathan Mason
