Charles,

You misunderstood me on this, I think. 

I did some research The API at V5R3 does not have a field for this. See
also this link (http://archive.midrange.com/oss400/200507/msg00000.html)
(a similar discussion was on the Midrange list end 2004/ begin 2005, IIRC).


Perhaps it has been changed with the latest Os-release.

Regards,
Carel Teijgeler

Huh?  I've never heard such a thing about DDS reference fields and the
List Fields (QUSLFLD) API makes no reference to such a 
limitation.  I believe you are mistaken.  I don't believe you can tell the
difference between a DDS created file that uses reference
fields and one that doesn't use reference fields (without looking at the
source of course).

However, if true for DDS reference fields, it wouldn't be true for SQL
created files.
