Re: Accessing QTEMP files

Hi David

VARPG uses 2 jobs on an AS/400, one for data access, one for running
programs or daraarea access.

So you are using one job when calling your CL program and the other job
when opening the file, which gives you 2 different QTEMP's,
that's causing the problem you have.

Now to allow access to the dataaccess job we created QCMDDDM, which is a
QCMDEXC only using the data access job instead of the second  job.
If you invoke your CL program with QCMDDDM your scenario should work.
There is a sample in Visual Programming Guide for how to invoke QCMDEXC,
just switch that to QCMDDDM, do a SEARCH for QCMD* in the programming guide
that'll help you find it.
