Re: Update on Closed File Error... I don't think so!

I am having a strange problem. I have a subprocedure that is giving me a

would be getting that error. Does anyone see anything glaring that I am
missing? The statement in question is the first "update ARINVHR;".

Any possibility that any of the procedures you are calling closes, or calls something that closes, the file in question?

I always like to only open a file if it's not already closed ... and set a flag indicating that I did so ... so I can conditionally close the file when I'm done.

Something like this ...

----------

if not %open(file);
open file;
fileOpen = *on;
endif;

// do stuff

if fileOpen;
close file;
endif;
