Issue with reset of file equations

[Pickering, John (NORBORD)]

Did you close the file between the first put and second put?

Quick won't close the file unless you explicitly ask it.

Hiya,

I'm new to the list an am hoping that someone out there can help me on this
one..its wrecking my head.... I have searched everywhere and can't find the
cause of the issue or a suggestions to fix it. 

So if anyone would be able to have a quick look at this and let me know if
you can give me any ideas on where to look...I would be very very grateful


background 

Running HP3000 MPEX 
Have a quick screen that gets a file name variable from a table, then 
sets the file equation (file is a message type file) 


File mlgt335A = <file name variable> 
Then a reset mlgt335A is issued. 


The issue is that even in one session no matter how many times  I set 
and reset the file equation it stays set to the first equation that was 

set (first time screen is ran) 


I have issued a listeq in the quick screen to see the file equations 
and they are OK 


First time in the screen if i listeq I get FILE MLGT335A=MLGT335K 
second time into the screen (same session) I get after a listeq FILE 
MLGT335A=MLGT335F 


but when I PUT the data to this file (just after I LISTEQ) the data 
onlt gets written to MLGT335K....I have done a listeq after the reset 
and the file equation is gone...I can't see what I'm doing wrong...any 

ideas... 


thanks a million 
Anne
