<h1 class="topictitle1">REFFLD (Referenced Field) keyword for display files</h1>
|
|
<div><p>Use this field-level keyword to refer to a field when the name,
|
|
record format, file, or library of the referenced field differs from its equivalent
|
|
in positions 19 through 28.</p>
|
|
<div class="section"><div class="p">Use this field-level keyword when referring to a field under one
|
|
of these conditions: <ul><li>The name of the referenced field is different from the name in positions
|
|
19 through 28.</li>
|
|
<li>The name of the referenced field is the same as the name in positions
|
|
19 through 28, but the record format, file, or library of the referenced field
|
|
is different from that specified with the REF keyword.</li>
|
|
<li>The referenced field occurs in the same DDS source file as the referencing
|
|
field.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="p">The format of the keyword is: <pre>REFFLD([record-format-name/]referenced-field-name
|
|
[{*SRC | [library-name/]database-file-name}])</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>The referenced-field-name
|
|
is required even if it is the same as the referencing field. Use the record
|
|
format name when the referenced file contains more than one record format.
|
|
Use *SRC (rather than the database-file-name) when the referenced field name
|
|
is in the same DDS source file as the referencing field. *SRC is the default
|
|
value when the database-file-name and library-name are not specified and the
|
|
REF keyword is not specified at the file level.</p>
|
|
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> When you refer to
|
|
a field in the same DDS source file, the field you are referring to must precede
|
|
the field you are defining.</div>
|
|
<p>Specify the database-file-name (with
|
|
its library-name, if necessary) to search a particular database file.</p>
|
|
<p>If,
|
|
in the same DDS source file, you specify the REF keyword at the file level
|
|
and REFFLD at the field level, the particular search sequence depends on both
|
|
the REF and REFFLD keywords.</p>
|
|
<p>You must specify an R in position 29. In
|
|
some cases, some keywords specified with the field in the database file are
|
|
not included in the display file.</p>
|
|
<p>You can specify a distributed data
|
|
management (DDM) file on this keyword.</p>
|
|
<p>When using a DDM file, the database-file-name
|
|
and library-name are the DDM file and library names on the source system.
|
|
The referenced-field-name and the record-format-name are the field name and
|
|
the record format name in the remote file on the target system.</p>
|
|
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> IDDU
|
|
files cannot be used as reference files.</div>
|
|
<p>Option indicators are not
|
|
valid for this keyword.</p>
|
|

|
|
the REFFLD keyword.</p>
