Re: Need to get quick database member list for multimember files

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ah - I get it - actually, those are not considered the same as data 
files - so they won't show up.

There is a distinction between these "flat" files (pre-DDS?) and true 
data files - with DDS or DDL.

For example, you can redirect output from an ls command in QShell to a 
flat file but not to one created from DDS.

I'm probably off some on the details, but that's generally what I've 
seen - non-DDS PFs have no structure - no external format. Only what is 
imposed on them internally in RPG and maybe COBOL.
