CHKOBJ/CHKDLO for IFS stream files - follow up

["System Support Products, Inc." <sspi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

   First, thanks to Bruce and Walden for your replies.

   Tom Liotta over in comp.sys.ibm.as400.misc mentioned that the CHKIN
command might still be usable, since it will tell you if an object doesn't
exist before it checks to see if the file system supports the CHKIN
function.  This is sufficient for what I need to do in this case, although I
suppose it carries a risk that IBM could change the behavior in future releases.

   It was interesting to learn that ILE CL could call the stat() function,
and thanks Bruce, for the sample code.
