Re: Externally Described files & RPG IV

John,

We use a command to execute overrides and then run the CRTRPGMOD command.  We 
use duplicate files to allow logical blocking.  We are following IBM's 
recommendations to improve file I/O performance when using READE or READ.  This 
is in I/O modules.  We see about a 33% increase in performance.  It seems like 
support could/should be built into the compiler.

Quick question.  I have a program which needs use multiple access paths
into the same file.  Is there a way to use the same file on two
different F-specs.  I know how to rename the Record and how to use
OVRDBF to allow multiple accesses to the same file.

Do I have to create a dummy PF to allow the program to compile ?
