Vern, Sharon,

Your examples concern a file that stays open between different calls from different programs, I think. In my case the file is overridden with share(*yes) then RPG1 processes the file as a primary file, then RPG2 does the same. So I think that the share parameter has no effect here?

It sounds like someone does not understand the purpose of SHARE(*YES)
but I cast no aspersions. SHARE(*YES) is one of those things that never
saw much use except among us old timers working on old, slow machines.

I haven't used it in many years now, and certainly never with SQL. Is
your SQL reference using system naming or SQL naming? I would not be
surprised if that made a difference. Although I'm now curious, I
haven't the time to mock up the example code to test the different
scenarios.
