Yes we can have a PF without a member. while comiling the
file we can give member option - None . which will not
create a member. But in order to store data and access it
member is required.usually we create a filed referece file
with member *None.

As I know, while creating any PF, a default member will be
created. And the default member name will be equal to the

Answer / karthik
yes absolutely. Create a PF member. Then, create a PF by
copiling option and then delete the member. You can retain
only the object and delete the source file. :)
