Gregor,

Check in your job log to see what other CPF messages your getting,
maybe its not "varied on", etc.

Also, make sure you do an override on the tape prior to opening it.
(similar to below - adjust RCDLEN and BLKLEN appropriately).  You
can do this in CL or from inside the program.

OVRTAPF FILE(QTAPE) DEV(TAP01) REELS(*NL) +
             RCDLEN(400) BLKLEN(4000) ENDOPT(*REWIND)

then ensure its defined properly:

select Tape-File    assign to tapefile-QTAPE
                    organization is sequential.

Of course, the drive must be varied and in "ready" status.

Terry
