what is OUTFILE?what is the uses and disadvantage? where we can use this?..

Answer / panduranga nayak

Outfile is an output file used to store the data returned
by a specific command. Using outfile , we can refer the
data in our program later.
For Ex:- Let say we need to delete all the logicals
dependent to a physical file.
In this case we can use the command DSPDBR and save the
output into an outfile in QTEMP and later by reading the
outfile we can delete the logicals.
