Answer / abhishek bajpai
Primary File is the one which uses the RPG logic cycle. It
is defined in the F spec as:
FABPF1 IP E Disk
Here, ABPF1 is primary file.
For a primary file we cannot use any operations like Read,
Reade, Chain etc. It automatically reads from the 1st to
the last record and executes the program from the 1st to
the last line. A program can have only 1 primary file
defined.
Secondary file is exactly like the primary file in
functioning except that the program starts processing the
secondary file only when the EOF is found for primary file.
A program can have multiple secondary files defined in it.

RPG/400 number of Records present in a physical file using file information data structure FPF001 IP E DISK F KINFDS INFDS1 IINFDS1 DS I *RECORD RECORD Is this coding correct sir,i have given I P E that is I- input,P-primary file,E-externally described. Primary to use RPG logic cycle,is this the correct method because we have to find number of records present using file information data structure in RPG/400 without doing any input/output operations on the file and also without using DSPFD,SQL. If the above coding is correct means,when i compile the program it gets compiled,but if i call the program it does not return anything,i need number of records,please complete the coding sir.
