error while writing to ESDS file

I have defined ESDS file as

SELECT ESDSFL ASSIGN TO ESDSFILE
ORGANIZATION IS SEQUENTIAL
ACCESS MODE IS SEQUENTIAL
FILE STATUS IS ESDSFL-CODE.
.
.
.
OPEN OUTPUT ESDSFL.

I am getting the following error.

IGZ0200W A file attribute mismatch was detected. File ESDSFL in program COBLESDS was defined as a physical sequential file and the file specified in the ASSIGN clause was a VSAM data set.

Can someone help to resolve it.

Hi kalukakkad,

"A file attribute mismatch was detected. File ESDSFL in program COBLESDS was defined as a physical sequential file and the file specified in the ASSIGN clause was a VSAM data set. "

For VSAM Files U need to make the SELECT statement as

SELECT ESDSFL ASSIGN TO AS-ESDSFILE Here AS means Address Sequential. Make this change and compile again.

I think you have to specify:
SELECT ESDSFL ASSIGN TO AS-ESDSFILE
