RE: (no subject)

Object authority is not your problem.  Were it so, you would receive a
run-time error whereas this is a compiler error.   The record format being
used in the UPDATE statement must belong to a file defined as an input or
output file in the file specifications.  

Hope that helps.

I have verified the profile has the correct authority to do the update, but
I can not seem to locate the cause of the error message.  I even went so far
as to give *PUBLIC all authority to the file.

Where can I find information on the error code?  

*RNF5198 30      1 File in Factor 2 is not allowed for UPDATE or DELETE
operation.                                          

Here is the code:

86 C                   Read(E)   ISPFPSO           
87 C                   DoW       NOT %EOF          
88  *                                              
89 C                   If        ENTXSO = *BLANKS  
90 C     KPSDX         Chain(E)  ISPSDX0           
91 C                   If        NOT %ERROR        
92 C                   Eval      ENTXSO = ENTXSX   
93 C                   Update(e) ISPSO00           
94 C                   Endif                       
95 C                   Endif                       
96  *                                              
97 C                   Read(E)   ISPFPSO           
98 C                   EndDo
