Hi Gary,

CH4FIXED doesn't use CCSIDs. It reads/writes the file in binary mode. This file isn't intended to be a text file -- if you're looking for info on text files, they're in a different chapter of the IFS tutorial.

Whether it's in the /tmp folder or not shouldn't make any difference. (As long as you change it in all places in the program.)

Thank you for the reply.

I ran through debug before but I was only looking at PartNo. I figured out what the
problem is but I don't know how to fix it. I think I caused the problem. I changed the
open statements to point to tmp in the root. When I view the file it's in binary instead
of text. Is it a problem of what the tmp folder's ccsid is?

How could I fix it so I will be able to read text files from tmp?

Thank you,

Gary

I'm in the USA
