Hi Nidhi,
FB is Fixed Blocked.....means whenever you are copying data from main memory to auxilliary memory it copies as blocks of data.....if you give simple F means Fixed it copies record by record.....
FBA is Fixed Blocked Attribute.....mainly used for reporting purpose.....it is 133 column and first byte signifised starting of the new page....
if first byte has 1 then it is starting of new page.....
if first byte has 0 then it is in same page.......
correct me if I am wrong............
