I know legacy DDS PF's performed validation on read, as opposed to DDL tables that validate on write (IMO the biggest reason to exterminate DDS).

Hey Justin

There are all manner of ways for data to be put into a table and be
corrupt - I can think of some option on CPYF that would do it.

So it is not just native RPG I/o that can put data into a table, or SQL
INSERT or UPDATE - there are other mechanisms.

There IS a difference in the timing of when this is checked, a
difference between SQL and RPG.

Cheers
Vern
