Hi,

I am trying to READ a csv file and for each record in the csv file I need to do some processing. With in that process, I have some more READ files. When I try to run my code, somewhat it got in to the loop because of too many nested READ's.

Example code is below.

FILEDEF INP DISK C:\IBI\TEST.CSV
-RUN

-LOOP

-READ INP,&F1,&F2,&F3
-IF &IORETURN NE 0 THEN GOTO DONE;

TABLE FILE GETUSER
PRINT USERID
WHERE COL1 EQ &F1
AND COL2 EQ &F2
AND COL3 EQ &F3
ON TABLE SAVE AS USRDAT
END

-READ USRDAT &USRID
-RUN

TABLE FILE OTHINFO
PRINT VAL1 VAL2
WHERE COL1 EQ &F1
AND COL2 EQ &F2
AND COL3 EQ &F3
ON TABLE SAVE AS OTHDAT
END

-READ OTHDAT &V1 &V2
-RUN

-GOTO LOOP;
-DONE
-EXIT


Any thoughts.

Thanks in advance

You will need to use NOCLOSE on your READ because a -RUN will reset the file pointers.

Check out this previous post.

That's what I thought but just want to make sure.

All is well. Thanks.
