Whenever returning from a call(CHANGE PROGRAM) in a subfile program and I try to issue a rewrite on the subfile record I am getting a file status error of 90.  I know that everything is getting passed back properly.  Just get the I/O error when trying to rewrite.  Any Ideas?
 
Hi,<br><br>file status 90 means some kind of problem, but it is not<br>specific. The right information you should get from the system messages. <br><br>Watch them all and try to find all the messages.<br><br>It can be helpfull to define a declaratives section.<br><br>If you don't work on an IBM mainframe but for example on a Windows NT system, this problem can occur when the record<br>you rewrite has an other length.
 
You need to check with your record length . If write then please check the values passed back<br><br>Does it&nbsp;&nbsp;answer your question ? If not please get back with a detail information<br>Thanx<br>Siddhartha Singh<br><br>
 
check to see that the key has not changed before the rewrite. If it has, then the rewrite will fail.
 
what platform are you coding in??&nbsp;&nbsp;Mainframe, UNIX. windows?<br>many combinations through are different...<br><br>telling the platform may help considerably. <p> Karl<br><a href=mailto:mc_karl@yahoo.com>mc_karl@yahoo.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br> ~ ~ ~ ~<br>
