Hi, with this type of file is possible to include record, modification and deletion? Or only with Adabas. ---

Natural work files are sequential files that can be read from or written to (write option can be APPEND). No record update is possible. It is not a data base file. TYPE SAG just refers to the format of the work file - look here → [url][http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/natural/nat6313win/sm/definewo.htm#Work\_File\_Type\_os[/url]](http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/natural/nat6313win/sm/definewo.htm#Work_File_Type_os%5B/url%5D) ---
