Maybe if you could post your SELECT, FD, OPEN ect we might be able to see something.

The I/O statement was unsuccessfully executed as the result of a boundary violation for a sequential file or as the result of an I/O error, such as a data check parity error, or a transmission error.

Hi Dave,

The FD section is as follows.

FD TRIGGER-FILE
DATA RECORD IS TRIGGER-RECORD.

01 TRIGGER-RECORD.
05 FILLER PIC X(2) VALUE SPACES.

Hello,

Suggest that there be no VALUE in the FD.

I'd also suggest making the record longer - maybe a total length of 16. Just make the additional bytes filler. I recall various problems with really short records in the past.

Is this the initial creation of the file? Please include the SELECT, the OPEN, and the JCL for this file.
