COBOL and message IWZ200S with file status 96

Hi!

I'm receiving a message IWZ200Z with file status 96 - and I cannot find a

Can anybody help me?

Thanks

Platform/compiler?

DD

The platform is AIX with the IBM COBOL compiler.

Well, I can't offer much help there; I use an IBM COBOL compiler but it is
on a mainframe.  According to
<http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-...=20020920180651>
a file status of '96' is:

-begin quoted text:

For VSAM file: An OPEN statement with the OUTPUT phrase was attempted, or
an OPEN statement with the I-O or EXTEND phrase was attempted for an
optional file, but no DD statement was specified for the file.

For QSAM file: An OPEN statement with the OUTPUT phrase was attempted, or
an OPEN statement with the I-O or EXTEND phrase was attempted for an
optional file, but no DD statement was specified for the file and the
CBLQDA(OFF) run-time option was specified.

--end quoted text

... but I don't know how much help that is going to be.  Has someone been
moving around your files so that they no longer match up with what is in
their SELECTs?
