LANSA Files loaded as PC Other Files
A better way to access LANSA files, than loading them as PC Other files, is to import the file definition into the current partition (and use DEFINE_DB_SERVER to redirect the RRNO file, if Auto RRN is not specified). Only load LANSA Files as Other Files when its impossible to achieve the desired outcome by importing the File Definition.
must not be specified for tables that are actually LANSA Files and for which the original LANSA file definition that created the file has the option selected.
If the original LANSA file definition has Create RRNO column specified and not Auto RRN then the solution is to deselect the Create RRNO Column option in the file attributes (after loading the file) and use the BIF DEFINE_DB_SERVER to redirect the RRNO file to the originating LANSA system's partition directory.
If the original LANSA file definition has Create RRNO column specified and Auto RRN specified, it will function just like any other LANSA file created directly by this partition.
