Hi All,
Can anybody tell me What does File Status 90 and 92 signify? I have written a cobol program and in that program i am opening a sequential file in INPUT mode and then i am reading the records from the file. While opening the file it is showing the File Status 90 and while reading the file it is giving File Status 92.But after reading it is not going for rest of the program.

Waiting for reply.
Aishwarya.

Flile Status 90:
I think there was a mismatch between the input file length and Cobol Select card specifications

Make sure that u are using correct ddnames

File Status 92:
File Status 92 will occur when you are trying to do some operations on closed file.

file error status of '92' could be of the following reasons
1.LOGIC ERROR/OPENING AN OPEN FILE
2.READING OUTPUT FILE
3.WRITE INPUT FILE
4.DELETE OR REWRITE WITHOUT A PRIOR READ
