error opening ISAM file

Hi, I am trying to open an ISAM file with isopen call. But I am getting error with iserror set to 111. I tried to check 111 error code ... 111 ENOREC Action: No record could be found that contained the requested value in the specified position. I think this error should error if we are trying to find a record and record is not there. But how can this error be possible while opening a file (ISAM)??? Thanks

You've got the positive value 111. That's not an error, that's a file handle.
