Vern,

 SQL gets rid of the level check issue, but it also gets rid of level
check protection!  If the SQL generated file is different in a
significant way, then I want to know about it as soon as the program
attempts to open the file, not long after things have gone very wrong! 
And if it's a bug, then it should be fixed.

Yeah mark- recognized the name - am very familiar with it!

I was thinking that you must be trying to read the temp file with native
IO - there'd be no level check issues if you read it using embedded SQL,
as I know you know!!

Regards
Vern

Vern,

Ironically enough, that's just what I was doing! The DDS file exists
(you may recognize it as a Webdocs file!) and I was doing an embedded
SQL
to create a temporary subset of the file.

Hi Mark

This is what you get when you try to mix SQL and F-specs - easier just
to
use embedded SQL, I think.

Rob,

Yes, we did have a discussion about a similar situation. The
differnce
is that the bug mentioned there had the "external" format ID between
the
files showing the same ID (which is displayed via DSPFD), while the
internal ID was different. Here, the external ID is showing as being
different.

It was also under v5r3 and below. We have since upgraded to v5r4 and
are
current on PTF's.

But, didn't we just hash the crap out of this a few weeks back?
Wasn't
there some additional weird fluke that affecting the record format
level
check? Maybe fixed by a ptf?
