Re: When records are counted as in file?

In addition to the FEOD op code mentioned earlier, you can set the FRCRATIO on 
the CHGPF command to 1 to let the system automatically force a write.

Subject: When records are counted as in file?

HI I have an RPG program that is writing records to a file but first it
checks to see if the key already exists. If it does, then there is no
write. I am finding that the *Not found ind. Is always on when it should
not be. Therefore am I to assume, that records written during the
program time are not counted as existing in the file?

 

Hope someone can clarify, TIA, Phil
