RE: What Does 'Descriptor not Valid' mean in an open statement.

Bradley,

It worked with no problems on our development box. This problem only occurred on the Production system.

Thanks,

Can you post your open code? Maybe you defined your file descriptor incorrectly?

I am having a very strange problem. When I attempt to open an IFS
file, the error I get is 'Descriptor not Valid'. When I google this
error all the problems others have had are with writing and reading,
but no one has had the error on opening.

Can anyone tell me why I am getting this error. We are on 7.1 and I
am using Scott Klement's set up.

Thanks,

Marvin
