Syntax
I16V I32V
FPOINT (filenum, lrecnum);
Parameters
- filenum
16-bit signed integer by value (required)
Passes the file number of the file where the pointer is to be set.
- lrecnum
32-bit signed integer by value (required)
Passes the relative logical record (or block number for a NOBUF file) where the logical record pointer is to be positioned. The number of the first logical record is 0.
On disk files, the EOF indicator is the file limit.
If the filenum parameter refers to a byte stream file, the lrecnum parameter is interpreted as a byte offset to which the file pointer is set.
(KSAM) For fixed-length files, record numbering starts with 0 or 1, depending on how the file was created.
(KSAM/3000) For KSAM/3000 files with variable-length records, the number of the first logical record is 0.
Condition Codes
| CCE (2) | Request granted. |
| CCG (0) | Request denied. The logical record pointer position is unchanged. Positioning was requested at a point beyond the file limit. |
| CCL (1) | Request denied. The logical record pointer position
is unchanged because of one of the following:
