Hi all, Okay, this is probably the most embarrassing question I have ever had to pose, so no laughing...please! I have a report program that reads a file and writes out to a printer file. For background, the program that writes to the file that I am reading for this report only writes 66 lines per page and then begins a new page starting over at line 1. The printer file has a page length of 66 and an overflow of 66. When I run the report to generate the report, I get the dreaded "I/O error CPF5004 was detected in file..." overflow error. My question is this...why? Here is the record format from the printer file: A R LINE A PRT85 85 1SPACEB(1) I must be missing something? Yes, I can put overflow indicators and check for errors and all of that, but the whole point is that I shouldn't need to. I am handling that by simply printing only 66 lines per page, no? I welcome your thoughts! Best regards, Dane NOTICE: This electronic mail message and any files transmitted with it are intended exclusively for the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
