Its value is based on the OPENTYP specified and whether or not the file exists. Note that a non-extended format FSCB (FORM=E not specified) implies OPENTYP=NONE. The values are as follows: File doesn't exist .... FSCBFST=A(0) File exists: Not FORM=E ............ FSCBFST=A(Copy of 40 byte FST) OPENTYP=NONE .......... FSCBFST=A(Copy of 64 byte FST) OPENTYP=READ .......... FSCBFST=A(Copy of 64 byte FST) OPENTYP=WRITE ......... FSCBFST=A(Copy of 64 byte FST) OPENTYP=REPLACE ....... FSCBFST=A(-1) OPENTYP=NEW ........... Error, FSCBFST is unchanged 0028 40 Address 4 FSCBFST Address of a copy of the FST returned on FSOPEN The following fields apply only to the extended form FSCB (i.e., FORM=E was specified). 002C 44 Signed 4 FSCBAITN Relative record number to be accessed on FSREAD and FSWRITE (also referred to as the "alternate item number") 0030 48 Signed 4 FSCBANIT Number of records to be accessed on FSREAD and FSWRITE (also referred to as the "alternate number of items") 0034 52 Signed 4 FSCBWPTR Extended write pointer (input on FSPOINT FORM=E, output on FSOPEN) 0038 56 Signed 4 FSCBRPTR Extended read pointer (input on FSPOINT FORM=E, output on FSOPEN) 0000003C FSCBLNBY *-FSCBD Length (in bytes) of the extended FSCB
