<h1 class="topictitle1">Create source files without DDS</h1>
|
|
<div><p>If many of the parameters of the Create Source Physical File (CRTSRCPF)
|
|
command default to values that you usually want for a source file, you can
|
|
create the source file without data description specifications (DDS).</p>
|
|
<p>When you create a source physical file without using DDS, but by specifying
|
|
the record length (RCDLEN parameter), the source created contains three fields: <em>SRCSEQ</em>, <em>SRCDAT</em>,
|
|
and <em>SRCDTA</em> (The record length must include 12 characters for sequence
|
|
number and date-of-last-change fields so that the length of the data portion
|
|
of the record equals the record length minus 12.) The data portion of the
|
|
record can be defined to contain more than one field (each of which must be
|
|
character or zoned decimal). If you want to define the data portion of the
|
|
record as containing more than one field, you must define the fields using
|
|
DDS.</p>
|
|
<p>A record format consisting of the following three fields is automatically
|
|
used for a source physical file created using the CRTSRCPF command:</p>
