I need to check the write status of an item in a type 19 file. Normally,
it will bomb out on write while trying to update a read-only item. (on
error and else clauses don't seem to do much for this in a write
statement).
I have a 'before update' trigger checks if an item in a type 19 file is
writable. The only mechanism I can see is to use an 'openseq' on the
item and find 'status<5>' for it.
This works but it still seems a clumsy long way around. Does anyone know
a more efficient way to do this?

Cheers,
