Not any more.....:) I did have but I deleted the one and that took care
of the problem...now I have to deal with my fields that require date
values.....for some reason they are not passing through correctly but I
have decided to wait until tomorrow to mess with that.  The rest of the
fields were naming issues....just about there and then I can pour myself
a scotch and celebrate.....

I do have the A there already, but it is complaining that it is already
defined as an INPUT record

You don't say which RPG you are using, but there is an 'Addition' flag
field:

 FMT F  FFilename++IPEASFRlen+LKlen+AIDevice+.Keywords
0001.00 Ffoo       if a e             disk

See the 'a' between the 'if' and 'e'?  This F spec can interpreted as:
Allow access to the disk file named foo, an externally described file,
opened as input, full procedural, with add support.
