Ok, if I CHKOUT a directory, do I need to CHKIN? Also, what is the point of CHKIN and CHKOUT?
Original Message ------------------------------------------- Try the CHKOUT command - if the object you are testing is a directory (you cannot check out a directory), you will get a CPFA0DA message, so monitor for that. If it does not exist, you will receive CPFA0A9. If the checkout was successful, it is not a directory and you need to check it in immediately.
The command first appeared at V3R1.
HTH VErn At 09:33 AM 7/9/2004, you wrote: I have a CL program that uses CHKDLO to determine the existence of a folder. We are changing things around to use directories. What would the equivalent command be to check for the existence of a directory? I assume we can't use wrklnk, because that will actually display the screen. Also, what would the correct msgid be?
