Re: Must not redefine DB field in subproc

You hinted at this, but, explicitly stated, until recent releases, fields in files named in F-specs are global - now I think it is possible to have F-specs in subprocedures - or was I dreaming!! Maybe those are local.


Vern, in V6R1 you can have F-specs in subprocedures. But those files don't get I and O specs generated by the compiler, so you don't get the fields of those files automatically defined by the compiler. You're forced to use data structures for the I/O to files defined locally in subprocedures.
