Scott You're not missing anything. IFS would always beat a source member, unless it was fixed format. I think the good news is, in V5R2, there is evern BETTER support in the IFS. There's a completely new format for storing and accessing the data. Details? I don't know, have just heard this from IBMers. At 03:28 PM 10/15/02 -0500, you wrote: -snip-
Of course, disk is cheap, and the compiler didn't allow you to specify an IFS path back then, so I went for convienience and used the traditional PF approach. I just wonder why he said that disk space was inefficient... I'm wondering if there's something that I'm not taking into account?
