<dd>Comments (optional): Comments can appear on any line in DDS. They are
|
|
identified by an asterisk in position 7.</dd>

<dt class="dlterm"><span>2</span></dt>

<dd>File level (optional): File-level keywords appear before the record format
|

name (RECORD1 on line 00040).</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"><span>3</span></dt>
|
|
<dd>Record level (at least one is required): R in position 17 identifies
|
|
RECORD1 as a record format name. In simple or multiple format logical files,
|
|
the PFILE keyword is required for every record format. The record level continues
|
|
until the first field is named.</dd>

not required for logical files.</dd>

<dt class="dlterm"><span>5</span></dt>
|
|
<dd>Key field level (optional): K in position 17 identifies the field as a
|
|
key field. A K must be specified for each key field. Specify the key field
|
|
level by repeating one or more field names (such as FIELDA) after the field-level
|
|
specifications.</dd>

<dt class="dlterm"><span>6</span></dt>
|
|
<dd>Select and omit levels (optional): S in position 17 identifies FIELDB
|

as a select field. (O in position 17 identifies a field as an omit field.)
|

The select and omit levels follow the key field level.</dd>
