Re: Update or delete without prior input operation

I am curious as to why you are attempting to update the same record you just deleted? Isn't the record gone?

I am having a bit of a problem this morning with the following code:
C DVNDNO CHAIN PAYABLES C DOW NOT %EOF C READE PAYABLES C IF DREFNO = PREFNO C DELETE PAYABLES C UPDATE PAYABLES C ELSE C READE PAYABLES C ENDIF C ENDDO 
I am chaining to the file with no problem and I need to stay within the key
(which is why I am using the reade), I am checking for a specific refno and
if I find it I need to delete it, but the system is complaining that I have
not performed an input operation....I would have thought the reade performed
that, what is the proper way to handle this?
