I have a PF with out any data but the dependent LF is having data?..

Answer / tulasi harideep

LF doesn't hold any data it is just an access path.Data is present in a physical file which is shown by a logical file based on its key and access paths.When there is no data in PF we cant see any data in LF as well.

Hope you got my answer
