You cannot do the open file.member.

open ovrfile

Why not do:
read ovrfile
if %eof(ovrfile)

At a very casual glance,

- RPG IV 101 - the literals need to be uppercase:

OvrFile = 'lib1/fl1' ;
Ovrmbr = 'sq9' ;

- and coding typo:

Dow Not %Eof(QRPGSRC) ;


- and shouldn't you be closing the file you opened?

Close QRPGSRC ;

Brian.

getting below errors for above program whereas FL1 source file in
LIB1
and
member SQ9 do exist in lib. lib1 and in source physical file FL1.
