Re: Sanity Check

This would also be true if there was no call to another program.

Pgm A successfully CHAINs to File X
Field XDATA is filled with values from file
Pgm A does something with the fields that came from File X
Pgm A loops around to try to read File X again
Pgm A UNsuccessfully CHAINs to File X
The fields that came from File X in the successful chain are still populated
with the data that came in the previous time.

Program loop logic needs to know if access was successful or not, and/or
clear some fields or indicators associated with each access.
