Re: SAVF? Compressed or not?

[Al Barsa <barsa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In WRKMBRPDM, option 2 to edit.  CAUTION:  Compression to a save file is

Thanks guys.  I'm guessing the CL file is saving the objects without
compression.  So, this was done by a consultant.  Can someone tell me how
to
edit a CL file?  iNav has the "edit" option greyed out.  I tried STRPDM but
didn't find the right option for editting CL language.

Thanks
