1. File(FMABCF)is declared as USROPN in F Spec.
2. OVRDBF FILE(FMABCF) TOFILE(FMXXXF)using QCMDEXC,please note XXX in the file name will replace with one of the program parameter on fly.
3. OPNQRYF FILE(FMXXXF)with few joing conditions.
4. Open FMABCF
5. Read FMABCF
While i am debugging the program in developement box to replacate the error, i also encountered with same issue and saw following error messgaes in Joblog after completion of above steps in program by using DSPJOB.
1. Diagnostic message - List of values not valid for parameter TOFILE, Error found on 0OVRDBF command

Answer Wiki:
Might sound obvious, but sounds like the parameter that's determining the TOFILE might be corrupted?

You should post all message ID’s and the job log.
Check out the value in FMXXXF at run time.
If I issue the command
OVRDBF FILE(MYFILE) TOFILE(FM TST) with a bad char or space in the tofile neme
I get the error: “List of values not valid for parameter TOFILE.”
And my override doesn’t work.
