Re: "Pointer not set for location referenced" on a CHAIN statement?!?

"some refinements"

Uh-huh. The kind that make it no longer work? *Those* refinements? <grin>

Are you retrieving into a based data-structure? Is the file being
overridden? Did you check that the file is actually open (and didn't crash
on a previous OPEN op-code, if used)? If you do a SysReq-3 and check open
files, is the *correct* file open? What program/procedure is sending the PNS
error?
