UNFIXFORMAT( file )
| UNFIXFORMAT | Change state of a dynamic file to unfixed |
| file | The label of a FILE structure, which must be a reference variable. |
UNFIXFORMAT changes a dynamic file that has previously been fixed into an unfixed state, thus allowing you to further change the format.
UNFIXFORMAT will set ERRORCODE to NoDriverSupport if you pass a file that was not created with NEW(file)
If you pass a file that was not created using NEW(file), UNFIXFORMAT posts the following error codes that can be trapped by the ERRORCODE function:
| Errorcode | Equate | Reason |
| 80 | NoDriverSupport | File passed that was not created with NEW(file) |
| 47 | InvalidFileErr | Structure is invalid |
If error code 47 is posted, the FILEERRORCODE statement can be used to return extended information. See the ErrorCode 47 Extended information topic for more information.
