Mike, the seu message knows nothing about the file at this point, its

the

point of entry when I press enter that the message pops up.

Joe Pluta may be right, its just not acceptable to use *Start/*End

with

SETGT.

I understand its not feasible to list all outcomes that's not

appropriate

but I feel this should have been an exception, I could have lost a
paycheck
on this one!

You can replace with SETLL, or if your not concern with the nulls then

use

*Hival/*Loval along with SETGT.

I just didn't see that one coming. Still, I feel there's something im

not

seeing here.

Are you files keyed logicals ?

On SETLL *LOVAL repositions at the start of a keyed file *START
repositions at the start of a non-keyed file
On SETGT *HIVAL repositions at the end of a keyed file *END

repositions

at

the end of a non-keyed file

We are on 5.3 and I can not use the *END or *START
with SETGT as shown below. In SEU the error message
RNF5318 pops up when enter is pressed. I can not find any
docs on the cause of error or that I can even use the *START/*END
with SETGT. However, they both work fine for SETLL.

Am I missing a PTF??

thanks
