Specify the entries in the following order to define an ICF file:
Repeat the record-level entries and field-level entries for each record format in the file.
Specify at least one record format in the file.
The maximum number of record formats in an ICF file is 1024. The maximum number of fields in any one record format is 32 767.
You can find an explanation of file level, record level, and field level as well as the syntax rules for specifying DDS keywords in Introduction to DDS Reference. You can find a complete ICF example in Appendix B, Examples of DDS for Each File Type.
Figure 382 shows an ICF file coding example.
