Hi Charles,
I am an old pickie, but you're right in saying that I am not familiar with
the Multiple data files construct in Universe. I have used multiple
data files in Pick, but that was very simple concept. This on the other
hand, looks a bit contrived, but I can see what it's trying to
on DEFINE.DF and LIST.DF.

Hi Ron,
The most common reason for using multiple data files is to share a
common dictionary. Some examples:
Customers (main data file)
Customers,temp (sample data loads, testing, etc)
Customers,archive (old customer records)
