As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

You're right, Chuck.
I changed the varchar to char for a test, and the format level IDs came out the same.

Record length matches
Record format names match
Field Count matches
Number and order of fields matches.
Field names, data types and size of fields should match since File1's
fields are defined as reference fields
SQL has some capability not available to the DDS files so REFFLD may be unable to extract every detail; the REFFLD may have other documented restrictions as well, for how much detail carries. One would hope all of the attributes that are part of the hash for the RcdFmt Level Id would come across. I will see if I can spot the difference; I will be using v5r3, but that should not be an issue for me if the latest PTFs are applied there. Seeing just one VARCHAR, and with ALLOCATE, I wonder if that might be the origin.
