You are quite right actually.   I am struggling with OCL36 wherein the
*FIRST member has data but the second member is blank and there is a
code that checks for file attribute as

             IF ?F'A,FILE'?/0 GOTO NORECS

Where NORECS sends an error message.  When I try DSPPFM *FIRST, it
displays the correct member as well as in any CL.  But when it is OCL, I
am not able to determine why this picks up the 2nd member.  Do you know
what is the problem here and how could I resolve it? (Of course
converting to CL will be ideal but can't have that luxury and there are
hundreds of OCL as above.)

Thanks for all the help,
Sudha
