I created an online VSAM file and made the FCT entry, after that i kept the file with OPEN status but when i am trying to view the file in browse mode with the help of File manager , the system is throwing error message 'Dataset in use'. After closing the file in CICS region it works properly in browse mode.
As i know we need to close online files only when we are working in edit mode.
Can any one help me why there is such problem.
