For testing purposes, remove the (e) and run the program,
it should display the error

Are you sure the delete is even processing? something else in the program
could be causing it to never run that piece of code.

Afternoon everyone
I have in a program, the following commands
c delete(e) telr
c if %error
c goto more
c endif
Does anyone know if there are in fact some errors that the above would NOT
catch
(Please - the goto is my act of desperation, and I usually don't use them,
but like I said, these are desperate times)
The situation is that the delete is NOT happening, but neither is the
error
If anyone has any ideas, it would be MUCH appreciated
P.S. This program has the file defined as BLOCK(*NO), so from what I can
tell, the delete should be as instantaneous as possible, and not held in
the buffer.
P.P.S. I almost forgot - we are on V5r4 if that means anything
