Re: What's in the recorded buffer after a failed READE?

Charles,

What do you mean by the record buffer? When RPG reads a record, it reads it into a buffer, which you as a programmer don't have access to. When the time comes, RPG fills your program variables with the corresponding data from the buffer. For random access that happens immediately, but with primary and secondary files it is all handled by the cycle.

All,

Quick question.  What is in the record buffer of an RPG III program after a
failed READE?  Does RPG IV work the same?

Thanks,
Charles Wilt
