why do we use file-aid for seqential files?..

Answer / kaarthik

We use File aid for sequential files for the following
reason:

1. Copy from one file to another only selected amount of
records.
2. To browse or edit through the file using a copybook.
3. For impact analysis on a particular file.

Please add on.
