Re: Simple Subfile question

[Jim Langston <jimlangston@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, I do write a footer myself, I have a header, subfile and footer.

I guess if I just move the line into the footer it should work, and I
was thinking of making a new record format just for this error, not thinking
of the footer.  

Thanks.

And as someone states, yes, this is smack dab in the middle of my subfile,
which is where I want it.  If this error message shows up, I won't be showing
my subfile anyway.  SFLDSP off.

Regards,

Jim Langston
