You can't usefully specify a record size (or blocking factor
(except MR)) when opening an existing file...MPE doesn't
allow you to "view" a file differently than it was created
(except for MR) ... unlike Burroughs MCP (which did allow that).
What does a LISTF,2 of the file show?
And, how are you reading from the file (FREAD? or a COBOL thing?)
