Re: ISDB question

["jim essinger" <esinger@xxxxxxxx>]

Kelly.

Have you looked at the file status for each of the files
opened?  They should be '00' (two zeros) but if an open
failed you will have a different file status.  You should
check the file status after the open statement.  If you
need help in coding to see the file status let me know.
