see here for all(almost) You might want to know about VSAM

http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/s ... .html?Open

and the implications of having Average record size = Maximum record size

As fr as I know there is no such thing as a 'KE' file. What you are showing is a KSDS VSAM dataset (not a file).
The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.
