Answer / venkat b
You can give 2 different names to the different Physical
Files like the following code and then use the
keyword "EXTFILE" to give a fully qualified PF -
Fname1 if f 10 disk extfile(LIBRARY1/filename)
Fname2 if f 10 disk extfile(LIBRARY2/filename)
RENAME(rcdname1:rcdname2)
Then, use DOW, Read and write.

You can't declare 2 pf in the RPG program with same name.
