RE: I know this must be a stupid question - updating a record -- JAVA400-L

Amy,
   Just a guess...
   The javadoc on open() states "If ... the file is
opened for READ_ONLY, the record cache will be filled
with an initial set of records."   Perhaps when you
switch to READ_WRITE, open()does not fill the record
cache.  That might explain why the two cases are
acting differently, but it still seems to me that
read() under READ_WRITE should work.
