Is it possible to control errors when you do 'Modify file'?

I would like to control if the database has been able to do my instruction. I've try with &LINES,&RECORDS and &FOCERRNUM but they're always 0. They work properly only with Table file.

Do you know another way to control them?

Do you know where I can find some help about 'Modify file'? I can't find in Developer's Help.

thanks

you could try something like:

NOTE `LC` is a Left Carat...


FILEDEF ErrorLog1 DISK &APPROOT..\Your_App\Error_log1.TXT
FILEDEF ErrorLog2 DISK &APPROOT..\Your_App\Error_log2.TXT
-RUN

MODIFY FILE XXX
-*
MATCH KEY
-*
ON MATCH TYPE ON Errorlog1
"Match Record - Updated Key `LC`D.KEY "

ON MATCH UPDATE Field1 Field2
-*
ON NOMATCH TYPE ON Errorlog2
"No-Match Reject Key `LC`KEY "

ON NOMATCH REJECT
-*
ETC, ETC
-*
data on...
fixform from...
END

then overlay your data with Master Files and bingo, you can TABLE you log to your hearts content

If you need more specific help then feel free to email me.
Good Luck Paul.

This section of (mainframe) help might come in handy for when a MODIFY has finished.

&ACCEPTS Indicates the number of transactions accepted.

&BASEIO Indicates the number of input/output operations performed.

&CHNGD Indicates the number of segments updated.

&DELTD Indicates the number of segments deleted.

&DUPLS Indicates the number of transactions rejected as a result of duplicate values in the data source.

&FORMAT Indicates the number of transactions rejected as a result of a format error.

&INPUT Indicates the number of segments added to the data source.

&INVALID Indicates the number of transactions rejected as a result of an invalid condition.

&NOMATCH Indicates the number of transactions rejected as a result of not matching a value in the data source.

Thank you so much.

I've tried with these new variables and they are great. We can't find them in Developer's Help.

Thanks Paul, your answer gives me an idea for another problem we have.
