Re: Prohibit RGZPFM because of RRN access.

Hi, Rob:

So long as those RRNs are never stored anywhere else, (e.g. in any other 
files, to "point to" records in this file), then what's the harm in 
allowing a RGZPFM?  I think RGZPFM requires "exclusive" access to the 
file, so none of your applications can be actively using this file, when 
the RGZPFM takes place; or the RGZPFM will get:

   CPF3202 File XXXXXXXXXX in library YYYYYYYYYY in use.

So long as the application does not close the file, and "hang onto" any 
RRNs, and then re-OPEN the file and expect the records to still be there 
in the same place, you should be okay.

Or, am I missing something?
