Jerry,
The error tells me the file "contains null capable fields". When I display the file
it shows dashes if the field is blank. The error happens at the read statement. Any ideal
how I might get around this? 
Thanks,
William...

Did you review the previous error messages as described in the CPF5029 
error message?

Recovery  . . . :   If the record number is zero, the error occurred on 
an   
  attempt to put or update a record through a logical file, or the 
error     
  occurred on a group by operation, or the error was caused by a 
default     
  value, or the error was caused by a null value in the record.  
See         
  previously listed message CPF5035 or CPD5036 to determine which fields 
are 
  in error.  Change the fields that are in error and try the operation 
again.
    If the record number is not zero, the error occurred on an attempt 
to read
  an existing record from a file.  See previously listed message CPF5035 
or  
  CPD5036 to determine which physical file fields are in error. Then 
either  
  delete the record from the file or change the data in the fields that 
are in
  error. Then try your request 
again.
