Hi all,
I have a file called dsts0001 that contains data on the stock of my store. When I go to add it to the system dsn did not appear in the database catalog of WinSql why? where am I wrong? all other files are read correctly, but this file was not, maybe I'm wrong to set the logical name?

thanks

What files names are present in the xfd for dsts0001? Does it have the same extension as your other data files?

in the directory of xfd, there are many files, I do not know which is linked to the specific data file. Also no xfd has the same name as the data file. Is there a way to figure it out?

Having dsts0001 and not a corresponding dsts0001.xfd seems odd. Is dsts0001 an Indexed file? Do you have the program that makes the dsts0001 file ? i.e. select myfile assign to "dsts0001" or is dsts0001 a name created through a configuration file entry? Anyway, if you have the program you can compile it with -fx to make the xfd.

How can i check if dsts0001 is indexed? I haven't the source code of the program...

Are you a customer of a company that provides the software that creates the data files .. if so, you'll need to contact the vendor to see if you can get an xfd for dsts0001. You cannot make an xfd just based on having a file, you need the FD from the COBOL program to make an xfd.
