RE: Logical file in RPG

Thanks for this Gene, but what if I have an additional field I want to
use as the key, instead of the date...

You could create the index over the table using the date then create a
view over the table with the date selection. If I recall correctly the
view would utilize the index to select the correct data.


CREATE INDEX ATABLEI1 ON ATABLE (DATE_FIELD)


CREATE VIEW ATABLEV1 ON ATABLE
WHERE DATE_FIELD >= (CURRENT DATE - 1 YEARS)
