Additional Considerations

When using a format name with a program-described WORKSTN file, you must also consider the following:
  • The name specified in positions 53 through 80 of the output specifications is assumed to be the name of a record format in the DDS that was used to create the file.
  • If a Kn specification is present for an output record, it must also be used for any other output records for that file. If a Kn specification is not used for all output records to a file, a run-time error will occur.
