## 9.6.20 ORGANIZATION Keyword

The ORGANIZATION keyword specifies the internal organization of the file. It takes the following form:

    ORGANIZATION = org

org
  Is a character expression with one of the following values:

  - 'SEQUENTIAL'

  - 'RELATIVE'

  - 'INDEXED'

The default is 'SEQUENTIAL'. However, if you omit the ORGANIZATION keyword when you open an existing file, the organization already specified in that file is used. If you specify ORGANIZATION for an existing file, org must have the same value as that of the existing file.
