How can I copy a logical file and change the source file to point to a test library instead?
Hi All,
I have a logical file: MFWOL100 that sits in production library LOGICLIB and refers back to the physical file MFWOP100 in FLNFILPRD. I want to copy that logical file and use it in my test environment. Our test environment is located in the FLNFILTST library and that is also where the MFWOP100 file is located. The MFWOP100 file is multimember, with M800, M810, M820, M830, and M840.
What is the best way of copying that logical file and changing the source table so that I can use it in my test environment?
I've tried this a couple of different ways and I appear to be going around in circles.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Your solution worked and so did a thing I did. I change the PFILE spec in the logical member to explicitly be the testlibrary/test table (I made a copy of the original member and placed it in the test environment as well). I then compiled the member and then it worked, but I appreciate your tip as well!
