Hi,

Look for other parts of the code. From the error

it seems the file is ALREADY opened somewhere before

this code.

Maybe some if condition or not closed before.

regards,

amit m.

If u had opened any file using OPEN DATASET file, before just close that by using CLOSE DATASET file.

Try to add and see,

CLOSE DATASET file before the OPEN DATASET file.

Check Prior to that you have any OPEN DATSET on the same file. and Not closing the file using the Close Data set then you have chances of getting the message.

open dataset ...in textmode etc...

open dataset..

in the above case you get the error.

correct that.

open dataset ...in textmode etc...

close dataset <ds>.
open dataset..

close datset <ds>.

If you have replaced the obsolete statement

OPEN DATASET P_FILE FOR INPUT.

with

OPEN DATASET P_FILE FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.

You should not have any problem.Just to recheck with you please dont keep the file already OPEN.

Thanks
