Subfile Types




Explain about sub files in AS/400.

If we want to access multiple records, then we have to go sub-files. There are three types of sub-files.

                    i.          Load all by this method we have to load only 9999 records. Here the page up and 
                    page down has been control by system. In this method sub-file size is greater than  
                    sub-file page.

                  ii.          Load on demand [SIZ>PAG] by this method we can load only 9999 records. Here 
                   the page up control can be controlled by system and user controls the page down. In 
                   this method sub-file size is greater than sub-file page.
          iii.     Load on demand [SIZ=PAG] by the method we can load unlimited records.Here user     
                    controls both of the Page-up and Page-down. In this method sub-file size is equal to sub- 
                    file page. This type is more advantage
