I would test but no iSeries today. Thanks Bill Hopkins Hi Bill, As of V5R1 you can use EXTFILE(varFileName) EXTMBR(varMbrName) on a file's F-spec along with USROPN. Populate varFileName and varMbrName then OPEN the file using the RPG filename. fFile1 if e k disk extfile(varFileName) extmbr(varMbrName) usropn d varFileName s 21a d varMbrName s 10a c eval varFileName = 'LIB1/XYZ' c eval varMbrName = 'ABC' c open File1 hth, Peter Dow Dow Software Services, Inc. 909 793-9050 voice 909 793-4480 fax 909 522-3214 cell From: "Bill Hopkins" > Thanks was pretty sure that was true for OPEN and I'm pretty sure I can > build it into SQL statements but for client thats a no-no. :( > > Thanks I'll just create another up front pgm to do clear and then call the > other with regular file opens and my QCMDEXC cmds. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
