On Logical File Path

Former Member — Tue, 17 Apr 2007 09:51:34 GMT

Hi all,

My program reads an input file given thru Logical File Path and the Physical File name .

The program works perfectly in Dev system, but in Quality system,it returns a sy-subrc 8 while opening the file ( open dataset ...)

I have assigned the logical path to physical Path correctly and have transported it .

I can see the combination entry ( Logical path, physical path ) in table PATH in both the system implying that the logical path is transported correctly .

I don't understand why then, open dataset stmt returns sy-subrc 8, while it is 0 in Dev system .

I don't have access to Transaction FILE in Quality .

Could it be any reason ?

Thanks,

i think u have to check the properties of the file.

if it is read only then u cannot ascess the file so we get sy-subrc as 8.

so u have to set the properties of the file to write also..

i think this will help

Bye

can u copy paste the open dataset code, so that v can find the problem or any syntax additions required.
