RE: Rename fields in "I" specs?

My dumb question of the day (or at least until my next dumb question...)
is there a reason why you wouldn't want to use PREFIX() on the F spec
for the file??? 


Thanks,
Tommy Holden

I don't think this has any bearing at all on how the file is 
handled/defined.  What are the symptoms you are seeing?

Folks:

This is a potentially dumb question ... would renaming a field in an I
spec, of an externally described file, change the way the system handles
that file?  Possibly making it considered a program described file?

Thanks!
