  • Subject: %EOF

Has anyone here had problems associating a filename with the %EOF bif?  I've been experiencing intermittent problems which seem to be occuring only in service programs.  When I pull the code out to a separate program to try to isolate it, it works fine (naturally).  Here's what I'm seeing:
 
Key        SETLL    Filename
 
            DOU    %EOF(Filename)
Key        READE    Filename
 
             If          %EOF(Filename)
                Leave
            Endif
 
            If            %EOF
                Leave
            Endif
 
        (do some code here)
            Enddo
 
When executing this code against an empty file, the first LEAVE does not execute, but the second one does.  When I put a numeric indicator on the READE, it comes on normally.  This is the entire code in a procedure in a service program (second LEAVE was added in testing) and, as I say, when pulled out into a test program it works fine.  Does anyone know how the filename gets associated with the %EOF and what might disrupt that association?  There is no code between the READE and the first IF.  I'm on V4R3.
