|
|
<div><p>To add a record to a multiple format logical file, you need to
|
|
identify the member of the based-on physical file to which you want the record
|
|
written.</p>
|
|
<p>If the application you are using does not allow you to specify a particular
|
|
member within a format, each of the formats in the logical file needs to be
|
|
associated with a single physical file member. If one or more of the based-on
|
|
physical files contain more than one member, you need to use
|
|
the DTAMBRS parameter, described in <a href="rbafologfm.htm#rbafologfm">Define logical file members</a>,
|
|
to associate a single member with each format. Finally, give each format in
|
|
the multiple format logical file a unique name. If the multiple format logical
|
|
file is defined in this way, then when you specify a format name on the add
|
|
operation, you target a particular physical file member into which the record
|
|
is added.</p>
|
|
<p>When you add records to a multiple-format logical file and your application
|
|
program uses a file name instead of a record format name, you need to write
|
|
a format selector program. </p>
