Yup, it's in the F-Specs.  The problem turned out to be SQL updates
occurring before I updated the record through an UPDATE command. :\

Not true...

You can lock the record in a file update hundreds of files & still be
able to do the update.  I believe the issue is that he updates the
SSW85
file 2 times using SQL prior to executing the rpg update. 


Thanks,

With a cursory glance at your code, I think the following is your
problem.
The update to SSW85 has to take place DIRECTLY AFTER reading/chaining
of
SSW85. In your loop you read SSW85, then read and update other files
before
the update of SSW85. The way around this is to save the keys for the
record
you are reading and then chain that same record, change the fields
where
necessary, and the update SSW85, with NO OTHER reads/updates of any
description to ANY OTHER files.
