Can someone tell me how to index a field in a subfile? I cannot
find the syntax in the book we have.=20

Indexed subfiles (on OpenVMS) were introduced in 7.10E1 if I
recall correctly. 7.10E did not have them. I seem to recall it was a
case of trying to meet a schedule (please be polite and don't hurt
yourselves laughing) and some features slipped. When we released E1, we
included the indexed subfiles. It would have been documented in a new
features book or release notes but probably not in the main manual.

Yes it is,=20
We're using it all the time. It is a sincere undocumented
feature; it became=20
official in the v8 series.=20
NB: In case of a physically kept indexed subfile, it MUST be in
the same=20
directory as the program that uses it, or alternatively if your
platform=20
allows logical names for physical directories/files, you can
create a=20
logical name for the indexed subfile and then it doesn't matter
anymore=20
where the file resides.=20

Assuming that your file is not a table in an RDB, and that the
item=20

but=20
potentially very slow option, and that is to use the linkage
below.=20
ACC DTL LINK DOCUMENT_NUM TO DOCUMENT_NUM OF * DKF1:[DW]DWDTL=20
In order to do this you will need to make your subfile indexed
on the item=20
DOCUMENT_NUM.=20
As long as you don't use optional on the access statement it
will return=20
data only where a link was made to the subfile.=20
The other option is to make the item DOCUMENT_NUM of DTL an

I am pretty sure that only applications which wish to use the

need to be recompiled once the new index is added.=20
