The only problem with your solution is that 'am not writing for T24 but JBC.  Again, when I do an input on the field on table AAX (or File as it is called in JBC - the 2 means same thing!), I want a situation where a validation would be done on table BBX (the record ID for BBX is input on AAX). You have to program this. OPEN "BXX" TO validation ELSE... .... valid = "N" LOOP WHILE valid = "N" DO  INPUT fld  READ dummy FROM validation, fld THEN   valid = "Y"  END ELSE    CRT "Not valid:"  END REPEAT Again, verification or validation are same thing!!! They certainly are not. Verification means making sure that it looks like it should do what it is supposed to do, validation ensures that it in fact DID do that.   Another way to ask this question is whether I can put a validation routine on INPUT statement of a JBC program? If not, then how do I achieve this scenario?   Jim --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Please read the posting guidelines at: http://groups.google.com/group/jBASE/web/Posting%20Guidelines IMPORTANT: Type T24: at the start of the subject line for questions specific to Globus/T24 To post, send email to jBASE@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe, send email to jbase-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/jBASE?hl=en -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
