The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

  Message:      RT149
 
  Text:         Wrong open mode or access mode for rewrite/delete
 
  Severity:     Recoverable
 
  Explanation:  You are trying to do a REWRITE or a DELETE on a file
                that you have not opened for I-O.
 
  Resolution:   Close the file and reopen for I-O.  However, as this
                error implies that your program contains a mistake in its
                logic, you may wish to close any open files, execute a STOP
                RUN statement and then recode.
