RE: Non-Join Multi PF Logical File Format

[Scott Mildenberger <Smildenber@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Rename one of the record formats.  The rename will only pick one of the
formats to rename(I don't know how it picks which one) and then the compile
will work fine.  Not sure but I think you will want to read/chain from the
file (not the record format) to get records that belong to either file.
