The data names are names of data records which must have 01 level numbers.
The presence of more than one data name indicates that the file contains more
than one type of data record. The order in which names are listed is
immaterial.
Data records in a file need not have the same description. All data records
within a file are processed from the same record area. The size of this area
is equivalent to the largest record in the file.
When the file description entry is for a sort file (SD), the data names identify
records named in the RELEASE statement.
This clause or the REPORT clause (Report Writer, section 5) must be included
in each file description entry.
