Anand,

A couple of things to check for status code 92.

1. check the access mode in file declaration. ie FD section.Make sure that it matches the listcat info of the vsam file.

2. Make sure that the record being read into a layout is not smaller than the recod.

3.If you are using a START verb to read a record directly, you first need to populate value to the record key.

check this link for sample porgram to check the status codes.

checking VSAM status codes

Hope this helps...

cheers

Thanks for ur reply Kolusu..

I have checked it out, and there is a conflict in file definitions.. Actually VSAM file is Sequential, and I have defined in the program as DYNAMIC. I want to conver that file from sequential to dynamic.. can you help me out..

Thanks
Anand

Anand,

If I understand you correctly, you have an ESDS file and you want to use it for both sequential and random processing. Convert this file into a RRDS or KSDS which allows dynamic access mode.

Hope this helps...

cheers
