Hi Ken

The job shows the file open twice, firstly without a format name (from
the OPNDBF), and one with the format (RCVF) as you suggested. 

Something like that this I think will work:

It does indeed. POSDBF without the initial OVRDBF SHARE(*YES) before the
second loop still doesn't reposition to the start, but I get record 1
again once SHARE(*YES) is specified. Thanks very much for your help.
