Lim,
Why not use the record format name? You can find it in this location in the
file feedback structure:
RcdFmt 261 270a

Subject: How to get the Physical file member name when reading a
logicalmember that is based on multiple physical members
Hello,
I need to know the actual physical file member name of record that being
read from a logical file member that is based on multiple physical members.
I did some research and found that position 395-396 in INFDS seems to be
what I needed. It seems to contain the actual physical-file-member-number
of the currently read logical file record.
The question is how can I translate this member number into the actual
member name? The only way I know of is to do DSPFD to a temporary out file
and do a chain to this temp file using member number as the RRN.
This sound ugly.
