Isn't the general rule "Read a file, write a format"?

I know I'm going to kick myself as soon as I hit the Send icon because

I'll see the error just a microsecond later.

 

But I cannot get the %eof() built-in function to work with subfiles. The

manual says it will (pages 479 and 710), but it doesn't like me. I have

pasted what I think are the relevant pieces of code. Hopefully someone

out there has better eyesight than I.

 

 

    FIT002FM CF E WORKSTN INFDS(WSDS)

    F SFILE(IT002B:RRN1)

 

    EXSR #Load; // Load the subfile

 

    EXFMT IT002BCTL; // Subfile control.

 

    READC IT002B; // Find the selection, if any.

    IF not %eof(IT002B);

    aaaaaa

    a 011400 Parameter IT002B is not valid for built-in function %EOF.

    %EOF is ignored.

 

  From the WDS ILE RPG Reference manual (pg 710):

 

You can specify an indicator in positions 75-76 that will be set on when

there are no more changed records in the subfile. This information can

also be obtained from the %EOF built-in function, which returns '1' if

there are no more changed records in the subfile and '0' otherwise.

 

Thanks.
