OPNQRYF multiple times in same program

Hi All,

I have a batch program that is;
1. OVRDBF ... Share(*Yes)
2. Performing an OPNQRYF selection
3. Does the Call to a COBOL program which reads sequentially thru the file.
4. DLTOVR
5. Then the program goes to sleep for 4 hours and then repeats again from step
1.

It has been some time ago that I programmed an OPNQRYF statement but my memory
seems to remind me that I could have a problem reading the file the 2nd time!

Am I correct in assuming this?
Is there an additional CL command I need to specify?

During the sleep period additional records will be added to the file specified
in the OPNQRYF selection

Thanks
Dennis Nel
