How/what would be the best way to handle above if I prefer to always use
result-field DS when performing file IO opcode?


I agree with Scott that to rely on the pointer approach is a risk not worth taking.

There are often very valid cases where use of result field I/O makes perfect sense and offers significant benefits. It seems to me though that in this case is not one of them. You are jumping through through a lot of hoops and making the code harder to maintain and more fragile simply to be able to use result I/O. To me that makes no sense.
