Re: Logical File Access

Yes, it is a true logical
No, not multiple logicals........

I suspect that logicals are treated slightly different
from a low-level DB2 perspective but that should not
affect a higher-level language. Of course, stranger
things have happened ;-)

Is this truly a logical and not an SQL index?

Is it possible that you have more than one logical
on the system (e.g. a library list problem) or there
is a CCSID problem?  Maybe your Working storage is
getting corrupted somehow...

I'm running out of ideas, especially since you've
spent time with the debugger and things appear ok.

It is an X(15).
No messages in the JOBLOG as it is not erroring out.
Running the debugger, I can see the field values and all is
correct............

Are logicals treated differently that physical files??  I
have this same
(generically speaking) code running on several physical files
and have never
had this type problem.
