Bob,

Multi-format LF's work quite well for this purpose. For input only, you can create the fields with SST(). But the beast for the long term is probably to separate out each format into its own PF and use the MFLF as the glue to bring them all together. The MFLF would have the same name as the original PF.

Has anyone moved an old RPGII program to RPGIII and then RPGIV in recent

I'm specifically wondering about approaches to move the program-described
database files to externally describd.
Most of that is obvious, but what about multi-format files? Do people simply
do a rewrite of the app in that situation or is there some simpler method to
handle them?
